Mental performance coaching for field hockey
Field hockey is played at full speed and decided in seconds: a penalty corner, a shoot-out, a turnover in the circle. As a mental performance professional, I help you train your mind so you perform in those moments the way you do in practice.
Sound familiar?
What we work on most in field hockey.
Mental performance work in field hockey is not just for the elite: it helps in high school, college and club hockey.
The mistake that sticks
One turnover in midfield and you play the rest of the game afraid of making another.
Shoot-out nerves
One on one, eight seconds and your mind goes blank.
Comparing yourself to teammates
You watch who gets more minutes and feel it is never enough.
Fear of coming back from injury
Ankle, knee, a hard hit: your body is ready, your mind is not yet.
The coach's eye
You play not to make mistakes instead of playing to win.

“I came to Camila with my head blocked before every game. In a few weeks I learned to reset after a mistake and to step onto the field present. What surprised me most was how concrete the work is.”
