About me
Psychologist and athlete
I help people perform at the moments that matter to them. Not by pushing harder, but by dealing more wisely with pressure, mindset and recovery.
I'm Emma Boone, a clinical psychologist specialised in sport and performance psychology. Sport and psychology have been my two passions from a young age.
As a clinical psychologist, I was fascinated time and again by people's drive and resilience. As a student psychologist, I discovered themes such as concentration, motivation and stress management. Together with my passion for sport, this led me to sport psychology and an additional postgraduate programme.
I regularly line up at the start as a runner, or head into the mountains. So I know competition nerves and doubt at kilometre 30 from more than just the textbooks. Being ambitious while staying yourself is a search for me too, and I'm glad to help you with it.

“In a world where the Olympic motto 'faster, higher, stronger' reigns supreme, I try to bring passion, enjoyment and balance back into ambition.” Emma
