Sport psychology, online

Performance psychology

Support to help you perform, rebuild confidence, and get more from your ability.

Dr Clare Churchman in a psychology session with an athlete

Success isn’t determined by physical ability alone.

Many athletes perform below their true potential because of anxiety before competition, loss of confidence or fear of making mistakes, difficulty concentrating under pressure, frustration following setbacks or injury, and inconsistency between training and competition.

Performance psychology helps develop the mental skills needed to perform consistently when it matters most.

You may benefit from performance psychology if you...

  • Perform well in training but struggle in competition
  • Experience nerves or anxiety before important events
  • Find it difficult to stay focused under pressure
  • Want to improve confidence and self-belief
  • Are returning after injury or a difficult period in sport
  • Feel stuck despite working hard physically
  • Want to perform more consistently

Why mental skills matter

Physical preparation is only part of performance. Many athletes spend years developing strength, fitness and technical ability, yet struggle to perform consistently when the pressure increases. Mental skills can be developed in exactly the same way as physical skills. The ability to focus, manage emotions, recover from mistakes and perform under pressure can all be trained.

This is where performance psychology can help you.
