About me

Hi there, I'm Oğuzhan 'Snagito' Uğurerkan. I am a sports psychologist who continues his work mostly in the field of esports. I first encountered the field of sports psychology during my internship program at the Olympic Preparation Center of Turkey. I had the chance to work with many different branches for the Tokyo Summer Olympic Games and after this internship program, which was like a dream for me, I decided to continue my studies in the field of sports psychology.

In order to improve myself in the field, I successfully completed the 'Psychological Performance Counseling in Sports' training organized by the Turkish Psychological Association. I also completed the 'Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT)' training organized by the same association and advanced myself in the field of individual counseling.

I have started my master's program in Sport Psychology in 2023 to gain my expertise in the field and during this process I get the chance to work with different branches. Two of these experiences within the supervision of the Association for Applied Sport Psychology gave me valuable experience in the field of esports.

After being in the esports community for more than 10 years, I have now been working as a sports psychologist at Bahçeşehir University Esports Club and Sissi State Punks. During my internship, I conducted over 100 hours of individual interviews and teamwork activities and took active roles in the tournament preparation processes of the teams.

In my individual sessions, based on CBT techniques, I work on overcoming the mental obstacles that my athletes are experiencing. In addition to these obstacles, we also work with them on how to set smarter goals, how to become more resilient and how to train more effectively. At this point, I would like to point out that each person is special and I design my process according to the needs of each athlete. In order to identify these needs, we do a performance profile study with our athletes in our first sessions.
