Psychology
Kara-Aretha Graham
PhD, CPsychol, FHEA, PG Cert
My Name is Kara-Aretha Graham and I am a Performance Psychologist.
Focusing on the whole person and as a unique individual, I have years of experience as a student, athlete, coach and performance psychologist. My main areas of interest include, but are not limited to, Motivation, Goal Setting, Confidence and the Female Student-Athletes.
The female student athlete experience is unique. The increase of female student athlete suicides has increased. High levels of anxiety, increased expectations both academically and athletically can lead to feelings of being overwhelmed.

Richard Abell
MBACP (Reg), MA, PG Cert
I'm Richard. A Performance Coach Who Helps Individuals Achieve Their Goals, Grow, Focus and so Much More.
So why am I different to any other coaches you may find in your search? Ten years as a psychotherapist working with clients from all walks of life, latterly specialising in the highly pressurised world of professional sport (premier league football, international and first class cricket, horse racing and more) allows me to bring a different skill set to coaching.
My goal is to help a client to achieve self-actualisation; to get closer to their best self. I firmly believe that in any therapeutic and coaching dynamic the quality of the relationship is key.

Female Athletes
Emma Quinn
BSc, MSc, PhD (ongoing)
Hello! My name is Emma and I’m a doctoral researcher in menstruation.
Following my experiences of battling difficult menstruation and the performance expectations of competitive sport, I developed an interest in the topic of menstruation in sport. During my BSc and MSc in sport psychology I researched athletes’ experiences of menstruating in the culture of elite sport, and IDT practitioners’ experiences of menstrual support provision.
Alongside my PhD that focuses on menstruation, mental health, and stigma, I work with support staff and athletes to improve awareness and understanding of the menstrual cycle and develop discussions about menstrual support in sport.
If you’ve had difficult experiences of menstruation in sport, want to learn more, or have any questions please reach out and we can start a conversation.
