About
KG Performance Psychology

Kara-Aretha Graham, BA, MSc, PhD, CPsychol, FHEA, PCGert

BPS Chartered Sport & Exercise Psychologist

My path—from NCAA Division I sprinter to cancer survivor, from athlete to coach—taught me that elite performance is never just physical. When my coach lost his battle with cancer and I faced the same diagnosis six months later, the track stopped feeling like a straight lane and became an obstacle course.

 

My body recovered faster than my mind; rebuilding the confidence to compete demanded focused psychological training. Coaching made the lesson even clearer: leaders carry not only their own ambitions but the weight of everyone who depends on them.

 

That lived insight now fuels my work with people who play at the sharp end—whether that arena is sport, the boardroom, or both. I help athletes, coaches, and high‑performing professionals master mental skills that turn pressure into purpose, fatigue into flow, and setbacks into strategic advantage.

 

If you’re ready to unlock performance that matches your potential, let’s meet you where you are—and move you further than you thought possible.
