Master the inner game of pressure.

Cognitive-behavioural hypnotherapy and applied psychology for athletes and executives whose performance is non-negotiable.

This is a practice for the work that happens before the moment. The mental discipline that separates careers — for tour-level athletes, founders, executives, performers, and anyone whose next-level performance turns on what's happening in their own head.

Most mental performance work falls into one of two camps: clinical hypnotherapists who don't understand performance, or sport psychologists who don't use hypnotherapy. This practice is built deliberately at the intersection — Level 5 CBH Diploma, MSc Psychology, and a decade working alongside elite athletes at Numinal.

More about how I work


Is This You?

You're capable. You just need the right work on the inside.

  • Athlete - Pressure Regression

    You can do it in practice. You can't do it in competition.

    The technical work hasn't changed. Something in the moment is — and it's costing you results you should be getting. Tour-level golfer, top-ranked tennis player, championship-bound endurance athlete: the pattern is the same, the work is too.

  • Executive - wired but tired

    You're wired but not winning.

    Always-on, always-doing, but the deep work has stopped happening. You built something and now you can't see straight. The habits that got you here are running you now — and the next move requires something they can't deliver.

  • Executive - Pressure Execution

    You sound less confident than you actually are.

    In board rooms, on stages, in calls that decide your year — you can hear yourself shrinking. The capability is there. The execution under pressure isn't. Imposter syndrome that doesn't quit, even now that you've earned the room.

  • Athlete - burnout / slump

    You're at the top and something's broken.

    Results have plateaued. Recovery isn't working like it used to. Training tolerance is dropping, motivation is patchy, and opponents you used to beat are catching up. You're going through the motions without the spark — and the road back is harder to see from inside it.

The Method

Three pillars. One method.

#1 The Reset

Recover the capacity to perform. For burnout, performance anxiety, sleep, and the residue of sustained pressure.

#2 The Mental Game

Train the inner game of pressure. For confidence, visualization, self-talk, and execution when the moment matters.

#3 The Long Game

Become who you're becoming. For identity, future-self work, and the version of you that comes after this version of success.

One method, three pillars

All three pillars use the same clinical toolkit — cognitive-behavioural hypnotherapy and applied psychology, applied to performance. The pillar names the focus. The method is what makes it work.

A diagnostic, not a sales call:

25 minutes, free, online. You describe what's happening — you don't have to know what you need from me yet. The point of the call is to figure that out together.

A specific recommendation:

By the end of the call I'll have a working diagnosis of what's happening and a clear recommendation: which pillar, which package, and what the scope of work would be. Or, if we're not a fit, where you should go instead.

No pressure, no follow-up sequence

No hard sell, no automated drip campaign, no "limited time" tactics. You take the recommendation and decide on your own time. If you want to start, you book. If not, the contact ends there.
