Mental training can help in a number of different ways depending on your goals and challenges. Here are some common situations and problems where mental training can make a big difference:
-
Performance anxiety and nervousness:
Feeling nervous or anxious before a performance, such as a competition or performance, is common. Mental training can help develop coping strategies to deal with this anxiety and turn nervousness into positive energy. -
Catastrophic thoughts and negative thought patterns:
Many people experience catastrophizing – negative thoughts that something will go horribly wrong, especially during stressful situations. Through techniques such as thought stopping, ACT and reframing, we can work on restructuring these negative thoughts and replacing them with constructive and positive thoughts. This strengthens your ability to think clearly and rationally under stress. -
Nausea and physical reactions during competition:
Some people may experience physical symptoms such as nausea or stomach upset during or before competitions due to stress and anxiety. Through relaxation techniques, breathing exercises and arousal management (regulation of tension level), you can learn to reduce these physical reactions and instead focus on your performance. -
Difficulty maintaining focus and concentration:
It is easy to lose focus during a long or demanding performance. By working with goal setting, visualization and self-talk, mental training can help you stay focused, even when distractions or fatigue creep in. You will be helped to develop strategies to quickly return to a focused state when your mind starts to wander. -
Low self-confidence and self-doubt:
Mental training can boost your confidence by working on thought patterns and self-talk. By changing what we tell ourselves and focusing on the parts we can influence, you can build a stronger belief in your own abilities, which is crucial to overcoming mental obstacles and insecurities during performance. -
Challenges with stress management:
Balancing stress and tension is important for optimal performance. Too low arousal can lead to a lack of performance, while too high arousal can cause performance anxiety and physical reactions such as nausea. Through mental training, you learn to find the right balance and control your body and mind under pressure. -
Stress management in everyday life:
Mental training isn't just for athletes – it can also be a tool for dealing with everyday stress. By working with relaxation, coping strategies and ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy), you can reduce stress levels and learn to focus on what is important, both in work and private life. -
Difficulty dealing with setbacks and mistakes:
When things don't go as planned, it's easy to get stuck in negative thought patterns or overwhelmed by emotions. Mental training helps you build resilience and a "growth mindset," where you learn to see mistakes and setbacks as lessons instead of obstacles.
Mental training is an individual process where different techniques and methods are used depending on your specific needs and goals. The goal is to strengthen your mental capacity and help you deal with the challenges you face on the way to your ambitions, whether it's performance in sports or personal development. Below are examples of working methods and techniques that can be used during the sessions:
-
Individually tailored sessions (60 minutes per session): Each session is tailored to your unique needs and goals. Whether you want to work on improving your confidence, managing stress, or increasing your mental strength before a competition, each session is tailored to help you achieve your specific goals .
-
Goal setting work: We work together to identify and define your goals - both long-term and short-term. By setting realistic, measurable and specific goals, we ensure that you not only know what you want to achieve, but also how to get there.
-
Techniques and strategies: Depending on your specific goals and challenges, a variety of techniques are used to strengthen your mental capacity, such as:
- Visualization

- Coping strategies and thought stop
- Arousal regulation
- Goal setting work
- Reframing

Reflection and tasks: Between sessions you can be given tasks to work on, to support implementing the lessons in your everyday life. These tasks are designed to strengthen the techniques we worked on during the sessions and create long-term change.
-
Long-term follow-up & development: To achieve sustainable results, it is recommended to work with mental training over time. Through regular follow-up, we evaluate your progress and adjust the plan to ensure you reach your goals.
