our mission
Autonomy Psychology was created to provide Weekend Warriors with a service that can help them attain control over their mental performance. In the pursuit of improved performance, lifestyle change, and well-being, the process first starts with the mind. We can find ourselves struggling with a physical transformation, achieving PBs, our motivation, confidence, and identity. Therefore, our work is to take a Mindset-First Approach and stop training with an arm tied behind our back! Together we will develop a Mental Gymbag to overcome your mindset barriers.
Choose not to be controlled by your mind's default settings, and instead gain autonomy over the direction your performance takes!
Robin hughes
Mental Fitness Coach - and Founder
Growing up as an elite athlete with an invisible illness, I experienced a love-hate relationship with my body. This resulted in me devoting time to improving my mental performance when my physical was impeded. Now I look back and see the psychological frameworks I was naively putting in place, to take my performance to a national level. Today, the mindset I cultivated shapes the way I approach life, and has led me to pursue a career where I can provide other people with the tools to take control of their mentality!

Interests:
Sport/exercise has been my life for as long as I can remember, so when you pair this with my fascination with the human mind, my career path begins to make sense! As someone with EDS and PoTs, I love to help people who are finding their feet with their diagnosis. I enjoy reading a good book (Can't Hurt Me - David Goggins is my favourite). In my downtime I like to explore, hike, take photographs, or learn a new skill - recently I learned how to solve a Rubik's cube in under a minute!!
