A clinical license isn’t required. We welcome sport psychologists, mental performance coaches, mindset coaches, counsellors, psychotherapists, and qualified practitioners with proven experience supporting athletes or performers. What matters is the strength of your training, your experience working in performance or mental skills, and your ability to clearly articulate the value you offer athletes. The platform is positioned around mental training and performance support — not clinical therapy — so your work should fit that scope.
Coaches keep 70% of single-session bookings and 75% of pack bookings. Packs reward both you and the athlete with a deeper coaching relationship — and earn you more per session. Athletes pay upfront when they book — no invoicing, no chasing payments. Payouts are processed via PayPal. No setup fees, no monthly charges — you only earn from sessions you deliver. (Founding coaches earn at a special rate — see our Founding Coach Programme.)
We’re being honest about where we are: My Sport Psych is building its founding cohort of coaches, so early volume will be modest as we grow our athlete base. What you get in return is founding-coach positioning — a verified profile, early visibility, priority placement in the directory, and a direct say in how the platform develops. Athletes find coaches by filtering on sport, language, focus area, and coaching style, so the better your profile fit and positioning, the more relevant bookings come your way. We’d rather under-promise on numbers and over-deliver as the platform scales than oversell at the start.
Every coach goes through a personal review — we don’t auto-approve anyone. We check your qualifications, professional background, and experience working with athletes or performers. Approved coaches get a verified profile that displays their credentials clearly to athletes. The bar is intentionally selective because the quality of coaches on the platform protects every coach already on it. If your application isn’t a fit, we’ll tell you why and what would change that — we don’t ghost applicants.
There’s no minimum hours requirement and no exclusivity — you can run your own practice, keep other clients, and set your availability around whatever else you have going on. Take on as much or as little as fits your week. You can pause your profile anytime if you need a break, and you can leave the platform whenever you choose — no notice periods, no exit fees. We want coaches who are genuinely engaged, not locked in.
