I have known and worked with Niamh for many years. 

Over those years I have asked her to work with players that have had talent but were unable  to transfer that talent to the competitive arena due to psychological issues.

Niamh has improved every one of those players allowing them to compete and flourish at a higher level by modifying their thought processes,behaviours and habits.

She has a passion for her work that ensures she’s not satisfied unless the player she’s working with gets the very most out of themselves and she’s prepared to go the extra mile to achieve that.

Niamh’s diligence, work ethic, knowledge and attention to detail ensure she’s at the top of her field in developing and bettering player performance and I look forward to working with her in the future.

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.

Delighted with Niamh Flynn to hold a talk with our regional dressage riders and what a difference it made. It was like unlocking the key in the riders ability to perform. It helped with riders confidence and bringing the home game to the competition. It was great also for the parents to be present to see the affect the mind can have on our abilities and how thoughts can be limiting.

It is like the finishing touches of a puzzle after you have all the work done it is important that your mind is in the right place for competition. Niamh attention to detail helps to focus the rider from nutrition to training to nerves. Highly recommend Niamh for anyone serious about their game.

“Last year Niamh’s help was crucial as we prepared our under sixteen rugby team for a series of matches in both the cup and league competitions. Niamh put together a bespoke session for us in which parents, coaches, and players could partake. It was an both an enlightening and hugely positive experience, which we all agreed, contributed hugely to the progress and ambition of the team. Niamh also provided very useful post session materials and recordings which we could return to if and when we needed to.  I can’t recommend Niamh’s professionalism and approach highly enough.”

Niamh made a very valuable contribution to our set-up in the fields of sport psychology and fitness assessment. We enjoyed a particularly successful year in 2000 and many of her ideas were put into practice. We won the league title and we won every game played bar one when we lost out to the eventual winners of the All Ireland Championship in the semi-finals.
