A MESSAGE FROM OUR CEO

Mountain Range
campeau_edited.avif

For me, the decision to take on the responsibility as CEO of Elite Athlete Services was an easy one. My desire to truly help others by leveraging my past life experiences and skill sets. I unequivocally feel that the mental aspect of sports is one of the most critical parts of being successful no matter what goals an athlete is trying to accomplish. I truly believes the statement that "anything is possible if you put your mind to it". 

After being forced to retire from hockey due to concussions, I faithfully put to the test my theory that “anything is possible if you put your mind to it”. After years of hard work and dedication, I became a professional dog sled musher and also the first male and Canadian to ever run the Iditarod and Yukon Quest 1000 mile sled dog races as a rookie in the same year.  I went on to run 5 Iditarod’s before sustaining a major concussion during one of the races that quickly became a life threatening injury in -50c temperatures stranded between the Canada and Alaska Border. After this accident, I unfortunately struggled with severe post concussion syndrome; however, this allowed me to meet Dr. Mrazik for the first time, who was instrumental in my recovery. I believe that these life experiences are truly what prepared me for the business world and my role as CEO of Elite Athlete Services, which allows me to help athletes and foster change regarding mental health and wellness

Jason Campeau, CEO

Health & Wellness

Athlete mental health and well-being are unequivocally tied to athlete performance. Growing evidence from the scientific literature correlates variables associated with athlete stress to increased injury risk. We believe that a comprehensive mental health program can play a very positive role in not only reducing injury but enhancing well-being and elevated performance. ​

 

We cater to all athletes needs such as:

  • Anxiety disorders

  • Mood disorders

  • Personality disorders

  • Trauma- and stressor-related disorders

  • Psychotic disorders

Mental Performance

and Optimization

Having an athlete perform at their absolute best is the main reason an organization invests in them. Performance optimization stems from various aspects such as:

  • Sports Psychology

  • Mindfulness

  • Mental Resilience

  • Recovery

  • Injury prevention

  • Sleep

  • Nutrition​
     

We can assist in performance anywhere from offering a single presentation or single athlete meeting, up to full long-term organizational planning that analyzes current processes and offers a road map to change using the most up to date scientific practices.

Athlete Transition

From Sport

At some point, every athlete's career must come to an end. This can either be by choice or a forced retirement.

 

Some athletes cope with this life change seamlessly and others continuously struggle to find purpose and cannot adjust to life outside the locker room.

 

Whether they need emotional support, mental help, career guidance or assistance finding a renewed purpose and goals, we have the the team to help.

Corporate Mental Wellness, Performance and Social Responsibility

The players of professional sports organizations are not the only ones who are under extreme stressors on a daily basis. The corporate structure of a team needs to align to achieve their goals and be mentally tough from all aspects. From the CEO to the training staff, and the coaches to the referees, when a person in a position of power is struggling mentally/emotionally, it can have detrimental effects on everyone around them.

 

Having a keen sense of a teams macroscopic mental wellness is one of the key differentiators within teams that win championship. We help guide executive wellness, performance, corporate optimization and productivity to all stakeholders under a companies umbrella.
