Dr. Shander shares practical insight for healthcare providers on how to bring up mental health support with patients in a way that feels collaborative, not dismissive. We discuss patient agency, injury recovery, career-ending injuries, burnout, difficult conversations, and how providers can ask better questions to understand what may be happening beneath the surface. This episode also looks at the provider side of the equation, including how clinicians can recognize burnout in themselves and create small, consistent recovery practices that help them continue showing up well for their patients.Key Themes in Today’s Episode: How to talk with patients about mental health support Why agency matters in the healing process How word choice can impact fear, trust, and recovery Recognizing signs of burnout in patients and providers Simple practices providers can use to reset and recover How to find mental health and performance psychology referral resources 🔗 RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE: Psychology Today provider directory: https://www.psychologytoday.com American Psychological Association Division 47: https://www.apadivisions.org/division-47 Association for Applied Sport Psychology: https://appliedsportpsych.org National Alliance on Mental Illness: https://www.nami.org Healthy Minds Program app: https://hminnovations.org/meditation-app FAKTR 2026 Upper Extremity hands-on courses are now open for registration in select ci…","meta_description":"When Performance Becomes Personal: Mental Health, Identity, and the Injured Athlete Part 2 with Dr. Karolina Shander In Part 2 of our conversation with li…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":2050,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-faktr-podcast-3746121/episodes/132-when-performance-becomes-personal-mental-health-identity-and-the-injured-athlete-with-dr-karolina-shander-part-2/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-faktr-podcast-3746121/132-when-performance-becomes-personal-mental-health-identity-and-the-injured-athlete-with-dr-karolina-shander-part-2.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
