About Me
I’m Renee Raymond, a Clinical and Counselling Psychologist (ON and AB), Registered Psychotherapist (CRPO), Certified Mental Performance Consultant, and Certified Counsellor dedicated to helping individuals reach peak performance and mental well-being. I aim to not only support my clients on their unique journeys on and off the field but also to empower them to recognize their innate worth. I support Olympic, Paralympic, professional, and varsity athletes, as well as dancers and performers. I serve as the Mental Health & Performance Lead with York United FC and consult with Game Plan, an initiative of the Canadian Olympic Committee. My approach leverages clients’ life experiences to promote self-realization, balance, and the confidence to reach their full potential.
Education & Experience
With firm roots in sport and performance psychology, as well as personal experience as a former athlete, I have long understood mental health’s essential role in athletic performance. I believe in the transformative power of a holistic approach—especially for those reaching toward peak potential. My qualifications include a Doctorate in Psychology and a Certificate in Sport Psychology from California Southern University, an MS in Clinical Psychology from Walden University, a Specialized Honors Degree in Kinesiology and Health Science/Psychology from York University, and an Advanced Certificate in Couple & Family Therapy from the University of Guelph. I’m also an EMDR Certified Therapist, with training in perinatal mental health. Finally, I’m a Certified Mental Performance Consultant with the Association for Applied Sport Psychology.
