Are your general stress and anxiety levels starting to mount up and get out of hand? The biggest indicator for extreme stress or anxiety is the feeling of a loss of control, which doesn’t easily subside. This can be very difficult to manage and solve, because you are in the thick of it rather than looking in from the outside.
Are you a sportsperson? You may be an amateur or professional, solo athlete or part of a team. Peak physical performance is important to you and a key element of that is improved, consistent mental clarity, to focus fully and engage in your sport. This is also called being in your “flow state” which all successful sportspeople attain. Fortunately this state can be achieved consistently through the right skills and practice.
Do you have a fear of speaking or presenting in public situations? Whether you speak in front of 5 or 100 people, this very common fear can be hugely problematic in the workplace and elsewhere. It will usually be stopping you from enjoying your job, holding you back from progressing in your career, or impacting in another area of your life.
Are you fearful or nervous in social situations? You might feel confident in some areas of your life, yet find it difficult when it comes to being around people in a social situation. Maybe you know of a particular trigger or past event that sets off your anxiety. It is quite possibly stopping you from doing the things you enjoy, limiting your options and the choices you make.
Do you have an exam you want to pass? We all know what those pre-exam nerves can feel like. At a low level they bring focus and concentration, yet for some lead to a loss of control. The nervous feeling in your chest or stomach and those irrational thoughts going round in your head can make it feel unbearable. You might have practised and revised, with the knowledge in your mind, yet that worry can make it hard to access.
Do you entertain or perform? If you are a musician, actor or entertainer then you probably really enjoy and are passionate about what you do. Yet you might still have a fear of being in the spotlight, lack self confidence or be too self-conscious, sometimes due to the pressure to perform and be successful. This will usually mean you can’t fully enjoy performing or find it difficult to engage with your audience, which can stop you from fulfilling your potential.
I am most successful with clients who have the following ideals:
- You recognise that, ultimately, only you are responsible for improving your situation, you just may not know how. I am here, as your guide, to help you find far better ways of thinking, feeling and behaving, allowing you to truly realise and achieve your potential.
- You are open to explore and suspend any judgements. The more options and choices you give yourself the quicker you are likely to find success.
- You can be motivated, persistent and optimistic, if needed. These resources will help you ride through any stormy patches that can be found when making long lasting change.
I also work with clients who are looking for help in other areas of their life. You can find out more about this here.
