Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does a sport and exercise psychologist do?

A sport and exercise psychologist supports individuals and organisations with a wide range of performance and wellbeing needs related to sport, exercise, and high performance. This might include developing mental skills, improving confidence, managing pressure, enhancing focus, supporting motivation, and helping individuals thrive in demanding environments. You can find specific examples of the type of support available on our Individual and Team Services pages.

Every client relationship begins with an initial assessment so we can understand your goals, needs, and desired outcomes.

A sport and exercise psychologist is not a clinical psychologist. If clinical mental health concerns arise, we will refer you onwards to access specialist support. We are also not an emergency service—if you or someone you know is in immediate danger, please contact emergency services.

2. How do I book a session? How many sessions will I need and how often are they?

To get started, please contact us using the details at the bottom of the page. We aim to respond within 1–2 working days.

On average, individual clients typically work with a sport and exercise psychologist for around 6 to 10 sessions, although this varies depending on each person’s goals and situation. Sessions are often held fortnightly, giving clients time to practise and apply strategies between meetings, and to accommodate busy sporting and life schedules.

3. Where are sessions held?

Sessions are available in-person or online. We are based in Cardiff and can work face-to-face with clients across South Wales and the South West of England.

4. Do you only work with athletes?

No. While we work extensively with athletes, we also support performers in other fields, including musicians and actors, as well as individuals wanting to improve exercise motivation and wellbeing. We also collaborate with businesses and organisations looking to understand how psychological skills can enhance performance, resilience, and culture.

5. How much do sessions cost?

Individual sessions start from £70 per one-hour session.

Fees for work with teams and organisations start from £250 per half-day.

All payments are made via bank transfer in advance of booked sessions. Initial conversations to explore whether we are the right fit for your needs are free of charge.
