Sport & Performance Enhancement

KK Psychology & Counselling is focussed on helping individuals to achieve their best in all endeavours in life. We are particularly passionate about working with individuals around sport and performance issues and offer a unique service in these areas.

We have found that EMDR assists in the resolution of Repetitive Sports Performance Problems (RSPPs).

RSPPs are yips, slumps or have trauma bases that often operate outside of the athlete's conscious awareness and control resulting in performance blockages which need to be addressed.

It is believed that stuck athletes are suffering from a version of post-traumatic stress disorder that has now been called sports traumatic stress disorder (STSD). Often the source of an athlete's deep fears and blocks can be traced to a trauma (physical or emotional) and injury history both inside and outside of their sports.

Through the use of these groundbreaking therapies the unconscious remnants of previous negative performances experiences that generate a sense of danger, physical tension and self-doubt that interfere with optimal performance can be resolved.

EMDR Sports Work once and for all releases the physical and emotional baggage that has silently accumulated over the years, freeing the athlete to return to top form and go beyond.
