A sports psychologist helps athletes and teams improve their performance by focusing on mental and emotional wellbeing. They use psychological techniques to help individuals manage pressure, recover from injuries, stay motivated, and build confidence. Sports psychologists work with amateur and professional athletes, coaches, and sometimes whole sports teams. Their work can involve one-to-one sessions, workshops, and group discussions, and may include techniques such as goal setting, visualisation, and stress management. To become a sports psychologist in the UK, you need a degree in psychology followed by specialised postgraduate training in sport and exercise psychology, and registration with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC).
