WELCOME TO GUNNING MENTAL PERFORMANCE
My name is Scott Gunning and I am a Trainee Sport and Exercise Psychologist.
I set up Gunning Mental Performance to provide sport and exercise psychology services to a range of individuals and teams, regardless of ability. I seek to work from a 'client-centred approach' putting you, as the athlete, at the centre of the work and tailoring my services to your needs.
I am also a visiting lecturer at the University of Winchester, lecturing in Sport Psychology and Skill Acquisition.
WHAT IS SPORT AND EXERCISE PSYCHOLOGY?
Sport and Exercise Psychology concerns the teaching of psychological skills and techniques to help aid performance. Many people assume that there needs to be a 'problem' to go and see a sports psychologist, but this couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, sport and exercise psychology is utilised by many of the world's best sporting stars.
Some of the areas that sport and exercise psychology can help with include:
Improving goal setting
Increasing confidence
Enhancing motivation
Learning new skills
Aiding with injury recovery
Improving teamwork
Enhancing overall performance
