Are you a bodybuilding athlete wanting to better understand and navigate the mental side of the sport?

Whether you’re considering competing, in prep, or adjusting to life after the stage, you’ll find psychological education and practical tools to help you through the different stages and experiences that come with competitive bodybuilding.

Hi, I'm Dr Efi!

I’m a clinical psychologist with over 20 years’ experience and a competitive bodybuilder myself.

I started bodybuilding in late 2020 and stepped on stage for the first time in 2021. Since then, I’ve experienced firsthand many of the highs, challenges and unexpected parts of competing.

As a competitor myself, I understand what it’s like to:

  • Commit yourself to a goal that requires a huge amount of time, energy, and focus
  • Experience your body changing through different stages of the competitive journey
  • Manage the thoughts, emotions, and pressures that can come with competing
  • Balance this goal with work, relationships, family and the rest of your life

I now bring together my clinical experience as a psychologist and my lived experience as a competitor to support and educate bodybuilding athletes across the competitive journey, from preparing mentally to compete and getting through prep, to body image, food relationship, comparison, identity, self-worth and adjusting to life after the stage.
