Sports Performance Counselling in Southwark
I’m Pedro, a BACP-registered counsellor offering diversity-aware therapy in English and Spanish, online across the UK and in person in London Bridge (SE1) and Greenwich (SE10).
My work is LGBTQIA+ affirming, ADHD/neurodivergence-aware and trauma-informed. I support adults with anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, grief, shame, low self-worth, relationship difficulties and identity questions. A lot of my work explores the emotional cost of adapting, hiding or people-pleasing.
This may connect with being LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, from a migrant or multicultural background, or a man who has not had much space for vulnerability.

I was born and raised in multicultural societies all my life. Living in several different countries on 3 different continents (United Arab Emirates, Canada, Pakistan, Wales and England) has given me unique knowledge about culturally adapting therapy. It has also taught me to understand and work with many different kinds of people. I believe in building a strong therapeutic relationship with the client to create a safe and comfortable space to address and potentially alleviate psychological trauma. I have extensive experience adapting contemporary therapy and counselling and tailoring it to unique cultural nuances.

Many of my clients start therapy feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or like they’re constantly masking to fit in. You might feel stuck between who you are and who you feel you’re “supposed” to be. Maybe you’ve internalised negative messages from others about how you think, feel, or communicate.
I work in a warm, open, and neurodivergent-affirming way — helping people process life experiences, manage overwhelm, and move towards authentic self-acceptance. I’m Julia Fry (she/her), and I offer psychotherapy and coaching for adults online via Zoom.

Sports Performance Counsellors
How does sports psychology work?
Sports psychology helps athletes identify and overcome challenges, such as perfectionism or a fear of failure, and improve key mental skills, such as confidence or concentration. By applying principles and techniques from psychology, such as goal-setting, visualisation, positive self-talk, and emotion regulation, sports psychologists help athletes improve their performance on the field and their well-being overall.
How long does treatment for a sports-related problem take?
The duration of sports psychology treatment depends on the athlete’s individual challenges, goals, the complexity of the interventions used, and even on the length of the season. A performance anxiety issue may be treated with a short-term treatment, like Cognitive behavioural therapy, while issues such as depression, substance abuse, or severe anxiety may require longer-term treatments.
How effective is treatment for sports performance problems?
Sports psychology has been shown to improve performance and help athletes manage their emotions. Sports psychology can be effective in boosting performance, team dynamics, and injury rehabilitation. Over the past decade, nearly every professional sports team in every major sport has added a sports psychologist to its staff. Many colleges have done the same, and even some high school programs have done the same. Olympic hopefuls may consult with sports psychologists starting in elementary school.
What are the limitations of sports psychology?
Sports psychology may have several limitations. Every athlete is unique and may respond differently to sports psychology treatments. Therapy can help an athlete reach their potential; it can help athletes cope with injury and pain, but it cannot change the physical limitations that may be affecting an athlete’s performance.
