What people say about us

“I can’t recommend Graham and Tara highly enough. They really know their stuff when it comes to sports psychology. Both are approachable, great listeners, and always provide clear, practical advice. They’ve helped me enormously with the mental side of competition, and my husband and I have also benefited from joint sessions to strengthen our mixed partnership. I’ve worked with them both online and in person, and in every case their insight and approach have been exceptional. If you’re passionate about pickleball and want to improve your mental performance, I’d absolutely recommend getting in touch with them.” Sue S (4.0)

“What do I attribute my success to?  My sessions with Graham played a huge role. Even though I didn’t fully implement everything, just knowing I had the tools available must have given my subconscious a level of assurance, which in turn gave me more confidence to go all in, focus and win.” Chris F (5.0)

“I can confidently say their support has had a significant and positive impact on my performances in Pickleball and my overall mindset. As sports psychologists they have brought a unique combination of expertise and empathy that has helped me manage pressure, stay focused and maintain mental resilience both in training and during competition.
Through Tara’s guidance I have adopted practical strategies to help me keep calm and focused at critical times both before and during matches. I have often struggled on court being distracted and overwhelmed by factors such as noise, lighting and the general environment. She has helped me overcome these obstacles and my performances have accelerated under her guidance.
At the recent Welsh Open I spoke to Graham before my semi-final singles Senior Open match and he put in place strategies and techniques to allow me to play my best Pickleball. I won my semi-final easily. What has impressed me most is their ability to tailor sessions. Whether we are working on visualisation techniques, goal setting, or overcoming mental blocks, I always feel understood, challenged and supported.
I would highly recommend both Tara and Graham to any athlete looking to enhance their mental game and take their performance to the next level.” Mark E (5.0)

“Tara and Graham brought such fantastic enthusiasm and expertise to a session for a small group of players at our Pickleball club. I found the content really useful - both affirming and offering valuable insights for personal improvement. Their newly found passion for the game and helping others benefit from their professional experience made it an excellent and enjoyable session.” Claire B (Team England Masters player)

“Tara worked with us during our first ever tournament in Abingdon. We were playing well in our group and had a good chance of qualifying but were suffering badly from nerves which were affecting our performance. Tara helped prepare us mentally in between our matches and ahead of the final. With her support, we were able to identify the key things we needed to do to relax. She got us focusing on ‘stuff’ that cut through our anxiety and calmed us down, enabling us to forget our nerves. We went on to win a silver medal and now, thanks to Tara, we have an approach to use if we suffer nerves in future.” Lisa G & Elaine R (3.5s)
