Gestionnaire santé mentale, Plan de match
#fhtogglels/Read Full Bio/Close/ib
Dr. Krista Van Slingerland is currently serving as Game Plan’s Mental Health Manager. She completed her doctoral studies within the SEWP Lab in the School of Human Kinetics at the University of Ottawa. Her research focused on mental health and mental illness in competitive and high-performance athletes. Krista became interested in this area of study following her own struggles with mental illness as a university athlete, which illuminated harsh realities about the sport system and culture that can deter help-seeking and diminish the importance of mental health. Krista co-founded the Student-Athlete Mental Health Initiative (SAMHI) in 2013, a charity devoted to promoting and protecting the mental health of Canada’s university athletes. A conference All-Star for the uOttawa Gee-Gees, Krista received the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) Tracy MacLeod Award for her determination and unwavering spirit. Now retired from competitive sport, Krista is enjoying giving back to the sporting community through coaching, advocacy work, and research. As an integral member of the SEWP Lab, Krista designed, implemented, and evaluated a sport-focused collaborative mental health care model within the Canadian Centre for Mental Health and Sport (CCMHS) to improve mental health services for competitive and high-performance athletes and coaches.
