Sport & Performance Psychology Coaching
Helping you become your best, overcome mental blockers and perform under pressure.
Welcome
I’m a sport and performance psychologist who works with athletes at every level, from amateurs chasing a personal best to elite and professional athletes.
I know this world from the inside. Cycling has been my life for more than 30 years. I raced at junior World Cup and at World Championship, so I understand the pressure of the start line, the pain and discomfort of pushing yourself and the self-doubt that comes with both.
Professionally, I hold a BSc in Psychology and Sport Science, an MSc in Sport and Exercise Psychology and am registered with the HCPC as a sport and exercise psychologist.
My work is grounded in peer-reviewed theory and research, sports and performance psychology and behavioural science, and tested in the real world. That gives you practical tools that are backed by science and tested in real competition.
In our work together, I’ll help you understand how your mind works, how you think and behave under pressure and give you simple, repeatable skills you can use on event day and beyond. My aim is for you to perform better and enjoy your sport more.
I’m based in Brighton and work with athletes in person and online, anywhere in the world.
My approach balances high performance with long-term mental wellbeing, so you don't have to sacrifice your health to hit your goals.

Time to be your best version
You Training Hard, But Lose the Mental Battle on Race Day?
Physical fitness only gets you so far. When fatigue hits or the stakes rise, pressure builds and your mindset determines the outcome. I help clients overcome:
-
Pre-race anxiety and overthinking that drains your energy before the gun goes off.
-
Hitting the mental wall late in endurance events (cycling, ultra-running, triathlon).
-
Fear of failure or re-injury holding you back from committing at 100%.
-
Imposter syndrome and burnout in high-pressure corporate or creative roles.
