The renowned sports psychiatrist Dr Steve Peters claims he did little more than give Jonathan Trott the tools to rebuild his England career . Warwickshire batsman Trott touched down in the West Indies with England on Thursday night , back in the international set-up for the first time since leaving last winter 's Ashes tour with a stress-related illness . Trott has spoken openly of his struggles since , but has slowly rehabilitated his career with both Warwickshire and the England Lions and is now on the brink of returning to Tests . Jonathan Trott returns to the England set-up for the first time since taking a break with a stress-related illness . The 33-year-old has worked extensively with Dr Peters during the last year , learning from a man who has done notable work with the British cycling team , Liverpool FC and Ronnie O'Sullivan , and who introduced the 'Chimp Paradox ' in a bid to help people better manage their own minds . But speaking in The Independent , Peters said there is no magic cure and that Trott had worked hard to counter his problems , which he described as 'situational anxiety ' . He wrote : 'He ticked all the boxes . It was a foregone conclusion to me that he would make massive progress - I just hoped that he would then perform as he has been doing and justify his place . Now he has done that . Dr Steve Peters worked with the batsman and gave him the necessary tools to return to the game . 'He 's an incredible cricketer . The advice I give to most of the people I work with is not to go public because obviously you 're training people to do a skill . A lot of people do n't understand it is a skill and therefore you might not get it right . 'People are expecting a magic-wand cure and that 's not really the way it works . Jonathan decided he wanted to go public about this because he has done so well . 'It 's a credit to the man . You can have periods in sport , sometimes a whole season , when things just are n't happening and you 're just digging even harder to make it happen again - that 's effectively what Jonathan has done . Trott has impressed since returning for Warwickshire and the England Lions , earning his return to the squad . 'From a psychological point of view , Jonathan is quite robust and certainly determined . It was just a case of giving him the tools to understand what was going on . ' Peters , who helped mentor the golden generation of British cyclists and also worked with O'Sullivan for his last two world titles , can see no reason why Trott will not make a successful return to Test cricket . 'What Jonathan did was to take it very seriously , he meant business , which is a measure of the man , ' he added . Peters ( left ) has worked with Liverpool , Ronnie O'Sullivan and the England football team in recent years . 'He was very open , hard-working , and what I effectively told him to do was to get some insights into the way his mind was working . Then it was up to him to operate [ his mind ] in the way he wanted it to , rather than it dictating to him what was going happen . ' I do n't have a recipe for people . It 's up to the player himself to manage the mind in the way they want to in the future . That 's something anyone can do , it 's not something you only do when you 're distressed . Jonathan had what became a situational anxiety , and once that was understood , he was able to manage it . 'My feeling is that he 'll do very well and he wo n't have any problems now because he has that insight . ' Trott reacts while bowling during a friendly match at Edgbaston , Birmingham during his comeback .
