I am a systemic psychotherapist and relationship coach specialising in RLT couples therapy. I work with couples who are stuck in patterns of conflict and disconnection and want to find ways to change them. No couple is the same, however it is common for couples to come to therapy when they may be considering separating, taking the next step in their relationship or repairing a significant rupture between them. Whatever the reason that may bring a couple to therapy, I work confidentially with you to explore your unique dynamics, the issues and contexts that underpin them and develop new ways of relating to yourself and your partner.

My name is Jessica & I’m UK-trained youth sport psychologist for athletes who care deeply & feel stuck - and for the parents watching it all from the side-lines. Lately sport might look like: post-performance tears or silence, training brilliance that disappears on competition day, one mistake becoming “I’m a failure,” and a home full of worry, second-guessing, and “What do we try next?”
If that sounds familiar, you’re exactly where you need to be. Make yourself comfortable and let me explain more about me and what my support can feel like.

I work with people who feel stuck and want to create more movement in their life. Movement is the capacity to change. We are most alive when we are moving forward. It’s from this place that we can adapt, feel better and live with more creativity and impact. As a psychotherapist I support you to create the movement you need and bring about change in you life. This can include the processing of a difficult life event such as a divorce, the death of a loved one or a traumatic experience.

You might look “together” on the outside, but inside, you feel tired, anxious, or stuck. It can feel like you’re living in a world you don’t quite fit into, wondering how everyone else seems to manage what feels so hard for you. You hold high standards, care deeply for others, yet struggle to offer yourself the same compassion. Perhaps there’s burnout, people-pleasing, or concerns about body image. You want to feel calmer and more like yourself. Together, we’ll slow things down, make sense of your patterns, build self-trust, and help you connect to who you really are, not just who you feel like you should be.

Many people struggle to perform at their best because pressure triggers mental barriers. How we perceive and respond to pressure—shaped by self-belief—strongly affects performance. I help individuals and teams build self-belief to optimise performance, manage emotions, strengthen resilience, and make effective decisions. I train Olympic and Paralympic athletes, pro golfers and footballers, university sport, creatives, leaders, academics, frontline public service professionals—including those in the police, military, and health and social care. I offer an applied contemplative and cognitive psychological approach in person or online.

We believe that everyone is unique and therefore is dealt with in a way that best caters to his or her individual needs.

This process may be challenging, yet extremely rewarding as we access the changes you want to make towards living the life that you want to live.

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.
