Dr. Susan Jackson is a registered psychologist specialising in sport psychology and an internationally recognised expert in flow and its application to performance. She has worked on the psychology of flow since completing a PhD on flow state in elite athletes in the early 1990s, built an extensive publication record on flow in sport from academic positions in sport and exercise psychology, and developed the Flow Scales, a suite of self-report instruments used across diverse settings. She is a full member of the Australian Psychological Society and a Fellow of its College of Sport and Exercise Psychologists.
With her mentor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, the founder of flow research, she co-wrote Flow in Sports: The Keys to Optimal Experiences and Performances, and in 2024 she published Experiencing Flow: Life Beyond Boredom and Anxiety. She serves as a flow scientist, psychologist and course facilitator with The Flow Centre, and her coaching and consulting work focuses on present-centred awareness and attention, aligning life with identified values, performance excellence, and finding flow in life's endeavours, often incorporating mindfulness-based skills training.
