Optimizing Mental Health for Athletes
I specialize in mental health support for elite athletes, helping navigate the unique psychological demands of high-level competition. From managing pressure and performance anxiety to building resilience and sustainable wellbeing, I work closely with athletes to strengthen mindset — not just for peak performance, but for a balanced, fulfilling life in sport and beyond.
