Psychology integration for Coaches and Practitioners

Psychology Integration for coaches, practitioners, and support staff. 

​

The best coaches already know the mental side of performance matters. The gap between what you can offer your athletes physically, technically, and tactically, and what they need psychologically, is real. Your athletes feel it. You see it and hear about it. 

​

The Fortis Psychology Partner Programme is designed for coaches, strength and conditioning professionals, sports therapists, physiotherapists, and performance support staff who want to close that gap. Not by becoming psychologists (who has the time... right), but by working alongside one. 

​

This is not a referral scheme, this is a genuine professional partnership, embedded into how your practice works. 

​

What will this give your practice/business/programme?

Working with a psychological performance coach (and sport psychologist in training) as an integrated partner can help in many ways. But the following four things stand out:

​

1. It may positively impact your fees. Particularly for those who run their own private practice's, to be direct, you are offering an integrated and more complete service.

2. You may retain clients longer. Athletes with psychologically informed support alongside standard support may stay invested, motivated, and onboarded far longer. 

3. You may attract more clients. You will be offering support that others in your field likely will not be. This will make you stand out. 

4. You can offer and sell more. Combined performance packages, workshops, direct 1:1 sessions for your clients, and various other programmes become possible when psychology and physical performance works together under one roof. 

​

This programme operates on three levels simultaneously:

• Business integration: your programmes, your onboarding, your client communication, your delivery philosophy, etc are reviewed and supported through a performance psychology lens. This will help you to become a genuinely psychologically informed practitioner, not just one who sometimes refers clients elsewhere. 

• Ongoing psychology consulting: monthly access to a performance psychologist for anonymised case guidance, programme reviews, and your own professional development. Case situations discussed, psychological challenges addressed, and your own performance as a practitioner supported. 

• Direct client referral allocation: a quarterly allocation of direct 1:1 psychology sessions for clients who need more than psychologically informed coaching can provide. Included in the retainer, with further sessions past the aligned allocation offered at a discounted rate. 

​

Is this right for you?

The Psychology Partner Programme works best for practitioners who:

• Have an active client base of serious athletes

• Are actively building and want to genuinely differentiate their practice

• Believe the mental side of performance matters and want to be able to address it properly. 

• Are open to genuine professional collaboration, not just a referral arrangement

​

If that sounds like you, the next step is simply a conversation! No obligation, let's just have an honest chat about your needs, context, and wants, and whether we are a good fit.
