About me

Claire-Marie is a Visiting Research Fellow in Sport & Exercise Psychology. She combines her academic work with her role at The Premier League, managing Coach and Football Manager development. Other examples of her roles in high performance sport involve working with national governing bodies of sport, professional sports teams, individual athletes, their parents, coaches and sport scientists. She has helped prepare a number of athletes and teams for international competitions including the Olympic, Paralympic and Commonwealth Games. Her role as a British Olympic Association Psychologist at the London 2012 Olympics was to date, her career highlight.
 
Her experiences of working with athletes reflect her research interests that include sport neuropsychology (specifically concussion and traumatic brain injury), career transitions in elite sport, visual behaviour in sport performance and women in sport. She specialises in working with elite adolescent athletes and their parents, and is one of the U.K.'s first sport psychology specialists trained to deliver Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy.
 
Claire-Marie is a non-executive board director of UK Anti-Doping, founder of the Women in Sport Academic Network (WISEAN), a member of the Women in Sport Research Action Group, a TASS Registered Psychologist and STEM Ambassador. ​
