Performance Psychology

I worked with Tim from Psych to Perform for 6 months in both an individual and team capacity. Tim worked with my competitive gymnasts, teaching them imagery to overcome mental blocks. Tim has provided excellent infographics that are incredibly informative and engaging for our wide age range of gymnasts. We will be using the infographic Tim has created for years to come. Additionally, the imagery training work has been amazing. Tim designed activities that fit within our session plan and presented minimal disruption to our regular routine. I also work with Tim on a 1 on 1 basis. Tim helps me overcome the challenges I am presented with by teaching me new ways to think and cope with obstacles in my life. I would highly recommend Psych to Perform for any individual struggling with obstacles or performance, any parent of a child athlete, and any team or sports club.

Portsmouth Amputee FC have benefitted immensely since working with Tim around some psychological behaviours within the team environment. Working with the coaches, Tim has built a tailored framework upon speaking to players/coaches and watching them in action. The framework has been implemented and shared with the players and coaches where there is a clear outline as to the pathway Portsmouth Amputee FC are currently going down. Aspects such as team spirit, building rapport, technical and tactical information are all involved. The framework has been hugely beneficial to both us as coaches and the players as it gives us a clear visual representation of whereabouts we are at and how we can improve different aspects of what we do to make ourselves the best version we can be.

Tim worked with my 12 year old son to help him overcome a mental block that was impacting his progress in trampolining. He formed a bond with Seb quickly and managed to get him to open up to explore and understand his thought processes behind what was happening. He spoke to Seb's coach to ensure he fully understood what was happening with Seb. He then taught him techniques to support him including imagery in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. All this was achieved in 1:1 sessions over teams. Thanks Tim.

Tim is a friendly, understanding and encouraging person to work with. He made my experience very comfortable which helped my progress tremendously. Over my time working with Tim, he made sure to cater content directly to me and whatever I specifically needed at the time. He is a good listener, very patient and knowledgeable. The structure of the sessions allowed me to learn and develop my understanding of myself further. Overall, working with Tim has had a huge impact in all areas of my life and has probably been the best thing I’ve ever done. I would thoroughly recommend working with him.

Tim was amazing, he was very friendly and he quickly built up a positive and encouraging relationship with our 11 year old daughter who was very shy. He explained everything easily and thoroughly, he would alway check she understood everything’s he was talking about. The sessions were informative, fun and engaging. Tim adapted a session when there was a problem at gym that she needed help with. Our Daughter learnt so much from Tim, out of this she recognises emotions and feelings better, she has now learnt to communicate any stress and worries and use her tool box to help any future situations not just in sport but in life in general. We’re very pleased we choose Tim to help.

Tim has been incredibly supportive with Hayden. Despite a short time frame. Tim has instilled trust and confidence with his technique and approach. Hayden was engaged and focused with Tim supporting him in a quiet and compassionate way. Hayden at 15 struggles to find key points and focus but with Tim’s tools he gave to Hayden he was able to ‘chunk’ his activity, accomplishing small wins each Time. Tim has checked in on Hayden during his competing weeks to see how he was getting on- A catch up session in between comps allowed Hayden share his success and plan for the following comp. We will definitely be asking Tim to support again as his input from a sports psychologist position has been the missing link. Thank you so much, I will be recommending Tim to our club.

Tim was great with my son, adapting activities to get the most out of him and build a rapport to ensure he got the best out of the sessions from a boy who would say less rather than more. My son reported that the sessions were fun and that he learnt a lot. Tim made the teaching age-appropriate and very personal to what my son loves.
