Work with me
Private mental performance coaching.
Bespoke, one-to-one mental performance coaching to help players to take control of how they think, feel, and behave in a performance situation.
This coaching comes with a high level of confidentiality; I do not disclose anyone that I work with unless I have permission to do so. The work is designed around one player at a time: their career, their pressure, their internal game.
Who it is for
- Players pushing for a professional contract
- Players who have been released from an academy and are looking to rebuild themselves
- Serious academy players aged 12+
- Ambitious footballers who are on the fringes of academy football
What players bring into the work
- Inconsistency they cannot explain
- Game-day nerves and overthinking
- Form that disappeared after a mistake, injury, or setback
- Selection anxiety and contract uncertainty
- The gap between training performances and match performances
- The feeling of playing safe instead of playing free
What makes the approach different
Private by design
No groups, no courses, no content to work through. A direct coaching relationship built around one player.
Beneath the surface
The work targets the internal story driving the performance, not surface-level motivation.
Football-specific
Every conversation is anchored to the realities of a football career: selection, form, pressure, contracts, identity.
- Direct message your coach for support between sessions
- One-to-one breakthrough sessions with your coach
- Practical homework and mindset tasks between sessions
