Alumni Spotlight - Robert Beer '16, Private Practioner, Mindset First

My name is Robert Beer, and as a Roberts Wesleyan College Alumni, I pride myself in the skills which I have developed during my 4-year undergraduate program. Roberts Wesleyan has provided me with the necessary tools to develop genuine empathy, understanding, care, and active listening skills. Roberts allowed me to develop a strong sense of insight into myself which ultimately allowed me to become a better practitioner. My completion of the Psychology program provided me with the necessary foundation, knowledge, and foresight that I needed to open up my own practice. Roberts Wesleyan was a significant influence in the development of my career, a journey that I am excited to have embarked on.   I later completed my Masters Degree in Sport and Exercise Psychology from the University of Portsmouth in 2017.

My practice is Mindset First: Mental Performance Consultancy. At Mindset First we look to develop the mental skills of athletes and aid in their achievement of elite performance and reaching beyond-imaginable goals. Psychological barriers are part of everyday life, however, being an athlete, it seems that we are faced with multiple barriers simultaneously and continuously. At Mindset First we break these barriers by establishing the mindset that nothing is impossible! My job as a mental performance consultant is to provide athletes with the necessary tools and skills to allow the body to perform at the level at which the mind desires. At Mindset First we strongly believe that “The Mindset Always Wins!”.  For more information, contact Robert at 647-772-5136, mindsetfirst@yahoo.com, or www.mindsetfirst.ca.
