Mental coaching to help you succeed
I offer mental coaching for athletes and competitors of different levels. My mission is to help athletes and competitors to improve their confidence on their performance and ability to handle any pressure they face on their journey towards their goals.
I 'm Reetta Knuuttila, a certified psychologist (M.Sc in Psychology). In my studies I have specialized in sport psychology through internships as well as in my Bachelor's and Master's Thesis topics
Mental coaching means developing confidence in your performance through practicing mental skills. The focus of the coaching can be eg. dealing with competition anxiety, calming negative self-talk or clarifying one's goals. The coaching is suitable for athletes of all levels, but especially for those with intrinsic motivation to learn mental tools to support difficult seasons and challenging competitions.
