Testimonials

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When I was looking for a kids sports psychologist for my daughter, I was referred to Hannah and HB Athlete Mindset by a friend and I am incredibly grateful for the referral. From the moment my daughter met Hannah, she felt she had met someone who could genuinely understand her and someone she felt comfortable talking to. The difference in my daughter's mindset within just a couple of sessions with Hannah was palpable. By her 5th session, there was no doubt my daughter had acquired useful mindset and personal growth skills and this was also reflected in her on-field performance. If you have an athlete child, especially a teen, who may be experiencing anxiety, self-doubt and lack of motivation, I highly recommend Hannah at HB Athlete Mindset. You will not only provide your child with life long skills but you will also support their personal and athletic growth. Thanks again Hannah!

Hannah we cannot thank you enough in changing our young aspiring athletes mindset. We are so pleased we made this investment into our sons mental health regarding sport early so that he is equipped with the tools necessary to create his own standards, discern selectors and coaches feedback and enrich his overall health emotional intelligence. Hannah’s program was fun and practical, easy to apply quickly to training and games and has created such a positive shift into battling the negativity and self doubt that once clouded our sons mind.
We spend so much time, effort and money on skill development but neglect our young minds the skillset required to deal with the ups and downs of elite sport.

My daughter had the most wonderful experience working with Hannah. Anxiety of performance to the point of throwing up before every race and tension for the weeks and days before competition had her crippled…I almost pulled her out of competitive sport altogether but sessions with Hannah put enjoyment of sport and competing to the front of my daughters mind and she is doing so well…she is again enjoying her sports and using Hannah’s strategies daily to reduce her anxiety so she can have fun and perform her best! We are so grateful to Hannah…she is so knowledgeable from her own personal experiences and extremely kind for younger kids and able to factor in your own personal circumstances. We are so grateful.

Hannah has been an amazing support to my child as they navigated the challenges of elite-level youth football. Through her mindset coaching, my child has gained invaluable insights that have fundamentally shifted their approach to both the sport and their personal development. The coaching process has empowered them to cultivate a more resilient and positive mindset, which has not only enhanced their performance on the field but also improved their overall wellbeing. Hannah’s personalised strategies and ongoing support have been instrumental in helping my child face obstacles with greater confidence and clarity.

I started seeing Hannah after a pretty hard year coming off several injuries that kept me on the bench for more than half the season. Coming back into the game, I had lost my confidence and doubted my ability to succeed on the pitch. Hannah knew exactly what I was going through and helped me work through tactics and mindset skills to rebuild my confidence, sharpen my focus and regain belief in my abilities. I have felt myself get stronger, physically and mentally, with each game and have re-found the passion and the drive I had lost. I couldn't have done it without Hannah's guidance. I highly recommend Hannah and HB Athlete Mindset!
Dana Hamann - World Surf League Competitor
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hannah has helped me through one of the most difficult times I’ve experienced in my 20 years of surfing. After being injured in 2020 for a majority of the year I lost motivation, excitement, passion, focus and the desire to do what brings me the most joy and peace.
Through the mindset work and weekly sessions with Hannah discussing the psychology behind my emotions, feelings, and thoughts, I have been able to completely transform my relationship with surfing again and have quite honestly never been this stoked, or confident.
Can’t recommend anyone better for sports psychology than Hannah, with her personal experience of being a professional athlete as well as her passion for athletics + the mind… absolutely unreal! Thank you for everything :)

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
As a Premier League Netball player I highly recommend Hannah. Since working with Hannah my mindset and therefore performance have definitely improved and helped me progress to the next level.
Heading into each game and training session I feel more in control and in power of my performance compared to previous feelings of doubt and uncertainty whether I would play well. I feel so stoked and excited for training and games and she has helped me free my mind to be more focused and reactive to what is happening during the game. As a former elite athlete herself she has so much knowledge and could relate really well to my experiences.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Had an amazing time working with Hannah. Made me realise, my thoughts aren’t who I am and that I’m not defined by my results, good or bad. Feeling a lot more positive after our sessions, very simple yet so effective. Hannah is easy to chat to and I can’t wait to work with her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Hannah has been working with my daughter now for over 12 months, focusing on mindset and performance. Some areas they have been working on include: finding the right zone and intensity for her performance, understanding a growth mindset and developing strategies for specific mental game planning each week. Hannah is approachable and easy to converse with, but she also challenges and makes my daughter accountable for her actions. Hannah's experience as a top athlete was important for us to work with her, as she can easily relate to some of the challenges that my daughter faces in wanting to take her game to another level.
Giselle Leon - State Representative Track & Field
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hannah has given me the tools and techniques needed to help my issues with my training mindset and what’s actually needed for a race day mindset. I’m able to stay in the zone more consistently, and perform with confidence for the whole race. Getting new records as well as PB’s has been the direct impact. I can’t recommend Hannah enough. She’s relatable, friendly and her knowledge in sport psychology as well as being a former pro athlete is admirable. I see myself continuing to work with Hannah next year.
