1-to-1 Sports Psychology

Private, tailored sessions that start with what’s actually going on for you, then build practical tools around it.

Sports psychology that starts with you, not just your performance.

Sound familiar?

  • You train hard and prepare well, but your performance doesn’t always show it

  • Your body tenses, your mind races, or you go flat when it matters most

  • You’ve tried “just stay positive” and “just focus”, and neither has lasted

  • Your sense of self rides on your last result, and it’s exhausting

  • You’re plateauing and can’t tell whether the problem is physical, mental, or something in between

You don’t need to be fixed. You need space to understand how you work under pressure, and someone alongside you while you do it.

What 1-to-1 sessions are

Private online sessions tailored to you, your sport and what you’re facing right now.

There’s no set script and no one-size-fits-all mental skills package. We start with what’s actually going on for you, then build practical tools around it.

Sessions can support you with:

  • Pre-competition nerves and nervous system regulation

  • Confidence and self-doubt

  • Performance plateaus

  • Returning from injury, setbacks or time out

  • Identity and life outside sport

  • Pressure, perfectionism and fear of failure

  • Feeling burnt out from your sport

How I work

Person-centred. You’re the expert on your own experience. I won’t tell you what you “should” feel or hand you a generic toolkit. I’ll listen closely, ask good questions, and help you find what works for you, in a space where you don’t need to perform.

Somatic. Pressure lives in the body as well as the mind. We work with breath, sensation and awareness of what your body is telling you, so you can recognise and regulate your stress response in training and in competition.

Together, these mean you’re not just learning techniques. You’re building a deeper understanding of yourself so that you can enjoy your sport and perform at your best.

What you might notice

Everyone’s different, and I won’t promise specific results. Athletes often describe:

  • Feeling more settled in their body before and during competition

  • A clearer sense of what they can and can’t control

  • A calmer relationship with pressure and with mistakes

  • Greater confidence in their own judgement

  • Feeling more like themselves, in sport and out of it

Who this is for

Athletes of any level and sport, from club to elite, who want to understand themselves better and are ready to enjoy their sport fully and perform at their best.
