Fantastic to hear from Callum Abbott about how to market yourself as a sport psych! Lots of great reflections to be made after this session 🙌 CASES Division of Psychology

Had fun presenting at St George's Park for the Cheshire Football Association conference! Always love discussing reflection, values, and Think Aloud Research & Practice. Thanks for having me! 🙌 ⚽ LJMU Sport Science

Here’s a sneak peak of a new project Dr Laura Swettenham and I have been working on 😬🎙️ In an area that is so focused on performance, when is it good to feel comfortable in sport, and when is it best to push yourself? #psychology #sportpsychology #podcast

Was an honour to co author this chapter with two of my favourite people Dr Laura Swettenham & Matthew Watson! Thank you Dr Amy Whitehead & Jenny Coe for the opportunity to have a section on esports among some other amazing chapters. Can’t wait to get stuck in to the rest of the book
