ABOUT ME

Sport & Exercise Psychologist

I am a chartered sport and exercise psychologist with the British Psychological Society and a practitioner psychologist with the Health and Care Professions Council. I have a Doctorate in Sport and Exercise Psychology from Glasgow Caledonian University.

Based in Scotland, I work for the Scottish Institute of Sport, supporting Olympic and Aspiring athletes across a number of sports including Swimming, Diving, Hockey and Squash. I have experience working with organisations, groups and individual clients of all ages. My practice can take place in person or online based on preference.

Honesty, empathy and respect are my guiding principles. My practice takes a holistic approach encompassing all aspects of a client’s life into our work. I am committed to providing a safe space where clients can feel free from judgement and explore their thoughts and feelings. I believe sport psychology is as much about personal development and wellbeing as it is about performance enhancement.
