About me

Hello and thank you for showing an interest in my website and the services I offer.

With over 20 years in education, lecturing in Sport, Exercise and Health Psychology I have decided to branch out on my own.

During my early career I played football to a high standard before the well trodden story of injury curtailing my dreams!

All was not lost as this is where a had my first insight into Sport Psychology (although I didn’t know it at the time). My academy director worked with me on some imagery to re-structure my thinking. Years later my then academy director would go on to be the England Mens Psychologist, working under Stuart Pearce and Fabio Capello.

I enjoy working with individuals and teams from a variety of sports as well as those taking on a range of challenges. I follow a strong set of beliefs and values that guide my practice and my aim is to help you reimagine your performance limits.
