The Gold Coast Commonwealth Games:
With the Commonwealth Games now underway, all eyes are on the Gold Coast!
Our athletes will be excited, anxious, tense, feeling the weight of their country’s expectations on their shoulders. Some will experience career highs; for others, there will be disappointments, such as Sally Pearson has experienced, pulling out of the Games at the last minute due to injury.
The life of an athlete is not an easy one, with the challenges of elite competition, hours of preparation and training, discipline, plus the juggle of work, sport and family commitments – how do they build their resilience?
The answer: sports and performance psychology.
Sports and performance psychology can be a valuable tool for anybody wanting to achieve their personal best – whether in their chosen sport, climbing the corporate ladder, landing a great job, or as a musician or performer.
At Vision Psychology we have a number of psychologists able to help you in this area:
Business and Entrepreneurs: Vivian Jarrett,
Sports and Exercise: Nikki Crossman, Nenad Bakaj
Performance Anxiety: Dr Jan Philamon
Study and Exam Performance: Sharyn Jones

2017 Telstra Business Women’s Awards Finalist
Congratulations to our Director and Founder, Vivian Jarrett, on being a Finalist in the 2017 Telstra Business Women’s Awards Qld – Entrepreneur category.
Vivian has long been passionate about making mental health more accessible. The model she has developed here at Vision Psychology, and also our sister clinic M1 Psychology at Loganholme, is completely different to anything previously available.
One of the advantages of this model is that it offers more flexibility for practitioners as well as clients – for example, with appointments available on the weekends. One business colleague has called it “the Uber of the psychology world”!
Since gaining her registration as a psychologist in 2008, Vivian has been involved in managing and supervising NHMRC projects at Griffith University, published in international journals and more recently completed a postgrad certificate at UQ in the Business School.
It has not always been an easy journey. As Vivian explains:
“My passion for business and innovation has led me to be at odds with conservative healthcare models. Times are changing and we need to move to more flexible workplaces and healthcare delivery … Technology and innovation means Google is seen to be a good place to find health information, with most people looking online before seeing a health practitioner. I believe we need to embrace our future, and find new ways to help our community, our country, the world.”
Vivian offers business coaching and non-Medicare related services such as psychotherapy supervision, training and public speaking. To find out more about Telstra Business Women’s Award Finalist, Vivian Jarrett, head to her website.
