“Athletes no matter how strong physically or technically sound cannot let their nerves overtake them and hamper their performance under the pressure of competition. To be mentally strong an athlete needs to work on their mental side of the game, which I did with Nanaki. For me, working with Nanaki helped me deal with my thoughts on and off the golf course. Also, I feel the quality of the relationship with the psychologist is extremely important for the effectiveness of the sessions. I felt comfortable talking to Nanaki as she is a good listener and found her empathetic towards me. The suggestions provided by her were easy to follow and helped me in the overall development of my game. Nanaki also invests her time and resources for each player individually, as she understands that every athlete is unique and different and she works with them accordingly. Plus the “Smarter thinking” model that she introduced to me was beneficial, simple to understand and it was very easy for me to apply it on the field while playing. Sessions with Nanaki have really helped me in taking my game to the next level. The sessions have helped me reduce self-doubt and now I am more confident while playing tournaments as well as during practice. I highly recommend Nanaki for those who are wanting to work on the mental side of their game.”
