Rethinking emotional and mental health

"Being a professional footballer comes with having incredible highs and some tough lows. In what has been the most difficult year in my career on the pitch, I found it incredibly helpful and reassuring to confide in Sue some of the issues I was experiencing.  Sue has vast experience in the game and I felt completely reassured knowing I was talking to someone who understood the complexities of the dressing room and the game.  I felt completely at ease and comfortable talking with Sue and her advice and guidance was really helpful." 

“Sue has helped me over the last 6 months in so many ways. She has opened my mind to techniques and skills that I would have dismissed before speaking to her and they have really helped me in and out of football. She has also helped me realise things that may have been holding me back as a person. All in all my experience with Sue has been very positive and I feel she has helped me move forward as a person and a player in an industry that can be hard to deal with at times.”

“I am currently a youth team footballer and I  speak to Sue for help and also to  guide me through the process of trying to accomplish being a professional footballer and the challenges I could face on a weekly basis. I find Sue very helpful as we do a lot of physical work to help our physical health however, there isn’t as much focus on our mental health. Sue is very helpful to have as it is a different person to speak to and to help me not just on the pitch but off the pitch as well. The guidance and support Sue has given me over the last 10 months that I have been speaking to her has impacted my life on and off the pitch in a positive way. I feel like it is needed to have someone there like Sue to help you in your journey”. 

My experience with Sue has been unbelievable. Since I came to England she has helped me emotionally and mentally in every way. I have been with her for seven years now and I wouldn't go to anyone else when I feel like I need to find myself or just have a simple chat to let things out. Lucky to have someone like Sue to help me improve my career for the years to come.
