Since I was first introduced to Niamh in 2013, I have repeatedly referred players from Connacht Rugby to work with her. As an accredited sport and exercise psychologist with a PhD in hypnotherapy, Niamh has the expertise, qualifications and experience needed to help players with many issues from pain management to sleep difficulties, confidence issues to performance enhancement.
Niamh understands the holistic development of players, and the high-performance sports environment that they work in. What sets Niamh apart is her vast knowledge of the connection between the human body and the mind and how mood, emotions, physiology, thoughts and beliefs can all affect wellbeing and performance. The feedback from players and other support staff at Connacht Rugby has been excellent, which is why I continually refer players to Niamh.
I would highly recommend working with Niamh for individuals and/or organizations involved in high performance environments.
