I’m Dr Gareth Jowett, a Chartered Psychologist (CPsychol), sport and exercise psychologist in training (SEPiT), and senior lecturer and researcher. I work with individuals and organisations to support performance, confidence, and wellbeing.

My approach is flexible and person-focused—psychology that moves with you—helping people understand how their thoughts, emotions, and environments influence their actions. I use practical psychological tools to support change—whether that’s performing under pressure, recovering from setbacks, or working more effectively with others in sport, exercise, the performing arts, or the workplace.

Based on my research, I’ve authored several journal papers and book chapters on perfectionism, motivation and burnout. This research informs my applied practice, ensuring that the support I offer is both scientifically grounded and practically useful.

As someone who works closely with individuals and organisations, maintaining the highest ethical standards is central to my practice. I receive regular professional supervision from Dr Ross Shand - HCPC registered sport & exercise psychologist - and fully adhere to the ethical codes of conduct set by the British Psychological Society (BPS) and The Chartered Association of Sport and Exercise Sciences (CASES).

This means the support I offer is always evidence-based, confidential, and delivered with care, respect and integrity. I am fully insured and hold an enhanced DBS check.
