Psychotherapy For Athletes

Psychotherapy for Athletes in Falmouth, Cornwall – Inner Warrior Therapy

Specialist psychotherapy for athletes in Falmouth, Cornwall. Support for injury recovery, performance stress, retirement transition, anxiety, and brain injury. Male-focused, tailored, and evidence-based therapy.

How I Can Help

With over four years of clinical experience, I specialise in supporting athletes and individuals from sporting backgrounds across Falmouth, Cornwall, and the UK. Combining my experience as a rugby player, Sports Coach, and P.E. teacher with my professional psychotherapy expertise, I understand the unique pressures and challenges athletes face.

I work with athletes experiencing:

  • Career-ending or serious injuries

  • Trauma related to sport or personal experiences

  • Stress and anxiety, whether performance-related or not

  • Transitions into retirement or life outside competitive sport

  • Brain injuries or CTE diagnosis as a result of sport

Every athlete experiences their journey differently. I tailor my approach to your individual needs, helping you navigate challenges and build resilience. If you are unsure whether therapy is right for you, I encourage you to reach out. If I feel another professional would better suit your needs, I will provide a referral to ensure you get the best support possible.

My Approach

I use Transactional Analysis (TA), a proven and effective talking therapy method. Together, we will explore how your past has shaped your current way of being. I will listen, clarify, support, and challenge you to develop greater self-awareness. Through our work, we will focus on making meaningful, transformative changes that help you:

  • Recover your sense of purpose and identity after sport

  • Manage stress, anxiety, and emotional challenges effectively

  • Build resilience and confidence in all areas of life

  • Improve relationships and communication skills

My approach is rooted in empathy, authenticity, and collaboration. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space where men and athletes can explore their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. By examining past and present patterns, we create new strategies and ways of being that promote mental and emotional well-being both on and off the field.
