Mental preparation and training for an exam, a difficult interview or any other important challenge

Before every important milestone, there comes a point when competence alone is no longer enough to provide reassurance. You know your material, you have mastered your subject, you have what it takes — and yet doubt begins to creep in, sleep becomes disrupted, and the prospect of being assessed by others starts to feel daunting.

This service is designed precisely for that crucial moment: when the technical preparation is complete, but your mind is not yet fully ready to carry you through when the day comes.

This is not another course on exam content or interview techniques. It is personalised support focused on your state of mind — your confidence, your clarity of thought, and your ability to remain yourself and perform at your best under pressure.

Who Is This Service For?

· A person preparing for an exam — academic or professional, a competitive examination or a certification — who finds that stress is beginning to interfere with their preparation.

· A candidate preparing for a decisive job interview.

· A professional who needs to ask for a promotion or a pay rise or negotiate a new role with management — and who dreads the confrontation or fears they may struggle to communicate and defend their value.

· Someone facing a difficult professional conversation: communicating a decision, managing a conflict, speaking before a committee, or defending their position in a challenging situation.

· An athlete, an artist, or anyone facing a physical or public performance where mental strength can make the difference.

· More broadly, anyone facing a specific challenge — intellectual, professional or physical — where the emotional stakes become just as important as the technical ones.

What Is This Service Not ?

· This is, of course, not psychotherapy or clinical psychological support. It is short-term, goal-oriented support focused on a specific and clearly defined upcoming challenge.

· This is not a course on the subject matter itself. However, I can train you for an oral examination, including on a complex, technical or scientific subject. For example, I successfully helped my son prepare for his physiology practical examinations at EPFL - Polytechnique (Lab I and II).

Frequently Asked Questions

How does appointment scheduling work?

When you've completed purchasing you'll be able to login to your PAYHIP account and can find out the next steps required to book a time for your appointment from there.

Will I receive a refund if I fail after completing the preparation with you?

No. Unfortunately, I am not a magician and cannot guarantee that you will succeed. Success depends not only on your mental and emotional preparation, but also on other factors over which I have no control — for example, whether you have studied sufficiently for the exam.

How does the training work?

I offer two options, both of which can be repeated as many times as you wish.

PLAN A consists of a single 90-minute session.

PLAN B, which I recommend whenever the time available before the exam, interview or challenge allows, consists of three 45-minute sessions.

Once we have completed an initial training session, I can be very flexible in arranging additional sessions if needed. For example, if you have very little time to prepare for an oral exam and my schedule is already fully booked during the day, I may be able to open up an early-morning appointment especially for you.
