Sport & Performance Psychology - EQuestrians

Physical training only gets you halfway. When performance anxiety and pressure take over, all that practice goes out the window. As a former elite athlete with advanced degrees and specialized certifications, I help you develop the mental skills and routines needed to build unshakeable confidence, stay focused, mitigate anxiety, and navigate stress. Sport is up to 90% mental—and in equestrian sports, you aren't just managing yourself, you're guiding your horse's mind and body as well.

 

Equestrian sports demand a unique level of awareness and emotional self-regulation—your horse feels everything. Combining technical biomechanics awareness with psychological skill-building, I help riders conquer ring anxiety, build unshakable confidence, and enter the arena with calm, decisive focus. Let’s master your mind so you can count on your training and preparation!​​​
