My name is Caitlyn Brannon, and I am a Certified Mental Performance Consultant (CMPC). Throughout my childhood and high school years, I participated in a wide range of sports, but it was clear that hockey was my true passion. I played competitive hockey for 14 years across various teams and levels in my region. In 2019, I was also fortunate to play on a provincial ball hockey team.
Sports have taught me invaluable life lessons—resilience, dedication, and the ability to make comebacks—that I carry with me into my practice today. Mental performance consulting is something I wish I had during my own athletic journey, as I believe it could have elevated my performance and helped me overcome challenges. This realization sparked my curiosity and passion for how mental training can drive performance excellence.
My name is Caitlyn Brannon, and I am a Certified Mental Performance Consultant(CMPC) and a PhD student at the University of Ottawa on the CHAMPS project. Additionally, I am a graduate of the Master's of Human Kinetics with a concentration in Intervention and Consultation at the University of Ottawa. Before this, I completed my Bachelor's in Sport Psychology at Laurentian University, where I was actively involved on campus.
Throughout both my undergraduate and graduate studies, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a diverse range of athletes and teams across various sports and levels. I've had notable success in helping individuals and teams develop key mental skills, including confidence, self-talk, self-awareness, and focus. I strongly believe in a collaborative approach, where my work with clients and teams is a shared learning experience. By creating a confidential, non-judgmental, and safe environment, I aim to support individuals as they reflect on and enhance their performance through mental skill development.

My goal is to help people achieve their definition of peak performance through conversations, focusing on awareness and achievement.
At the same time, we are learning and growing together through our therapeutic alliance. I want to have a positive effect on my clients built on compassion and empowerment, acknowledging their strengths, and
