About me
I have always enjoyed sport and been interested in how athletes cope with the both the mental challenges of their game and also the everyday life-stressors. As a teenager my dream was to become a professional ballet dancer but injury prevented this. Later in life I became a personal trainer and yet again injury and a lengthy rehab program led me to focus on the mental aspect of performance.
I have been a Clinical Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist since 2003, with an MSc in Psychology and MSc in Sport Psychology. I am currently doing my Doctorate in Counselling Psychology at University of West of England and my work with clients is based on current evidence-based psychology and sport psychology research.
Who do I work with and what do I help them with? I see clients from many walks of life but have a special interest in athletes. I work with junior (aged +16), senior and veteran athletes in both amateur and professional sport. With 19 years experience I still love being able to help clients make positive improvements and achieve more in both their personal and professional lives.
During the last 19 years I have worked with athletes from many different sports both in UK and in the Middle East for help with a range of issues including
- fear of injury and re-injury
- career-ending injury
- career transition
- anxiety
- stress
- anger issues
- relationship difficulties
- depression and lack of confidence
Strong self-belief and confidence are vital to coping better with anxiety, stress and life’s challenges, so that you can
- step outside your comfort zone
- create a more positive mindset
- enjoy better relationships
- feel more in control with improved mental skills
- achieve your goals
- enjoy your game and your life
