This year, Homewood Health is proud to serve as the Official Mental Health Services Provider to Team Canada. Through Game Plan, Canada’s athlete EFAP, we support the wellbeing of Olympic athletes—people who face immense pressure, rapid change, and high-stakes performance demands.
However, our Olympic partnership is more than a point of pride—it’s a reminder that trusted care, proven standards, and meaningful outcomes are at the heart of everything we do.
Team Canada chooses partners with exceptional clinical rigor, reliability, and proven results. Their endorsement reflects:
Confidence in our clinical leadership
Trust in the quality and safety of our care
Alignment with their expectations for world-class mental health support
This trust isn’t given lightly—and it reinforces something important for anyone considering treatment: You deserve the same level of care, expertise, and commitment that Canada’s top performers count on.
If you or someone you care about is living with a mental health or addiction challenge, reach out today.
The same organization trusted to protect the mental health of Canada’s highest-performing athletes is also the one delivering Canada’s leading evidence-based inpatient mental health treatment.
And while we do not treat Olympic athletes in our inpatient programs, the clinical standards, ethics, governance, and quality frameworks that guide our work with Team Canada are the very same standards that guide every aspect of care in our treatment facilities.
Athletes know what many of us feel every day: mental, emotional, and physical health are deeply connected. Whether it’s managing stress, navigating transitions, addressing trauma, or building resilience, the approaches that support athlete mental health are grounded in the same leading evidence-based practices we use in our inpatient programs.
At Homewood’s treatment facilities, you receive:
These are the same principles behind the care we deliver through Game Plan—adapted and expanded for individuals who need more intensive, structured support.
When someone is ready for help, the path should be clear and supported. Homewood is known for:
We bring the same discipline, reliability, and quality demanded by national sport organizations into every inpatient we operate—because your mental health deserves nothing less.
Mikaël Kingsbury, known as “The King of Moguls,” is the most decorated moguls skier in history—a Canadian icon whose name has become synonymous with dominance on the slopes. With three Olympic medals and 100 World Cup victories, his legacy is unmatched. Yet behind the precision and pressure of always being “the one to beat,” Mikaël has faced the mental strain that comes with sustaining excellence at the highest level.
Mikaël’s story reminds us that high performance, in sport or in life, is not only physical—it is profoundly mental. The same principles that guide his success on the slopes are directly applicable to everyday challenges:
These lessons belong not just to athletes, but to all of us. Mental health pressures are part of being human, and so too is the capacity to manage them with support, strategy, and resilience.
Isabelle Weidemann, known as Izzy to those close to her, is one of Canada’s most accomplished long track speed skaters, celebrated for her Olympic gold, silver, and bronze medals at the Beijing 2022 Winter Games. Standing tall at over six feet, she’s known for her powerful stride and remarkable endurance—but her success hasn’t come without challenge. Off the ice, Isabelle is becoming more open about her struggles with anxiety, sharing how it shaped her journey and why she feels it’s important to talk about more often.
Isabelle’s journey has resulted in practical strategies to manage anxiety and panic. They include:
Perhaps the most powerful reminder she offers is also the simplest: you are not alone. Many more people struggle with anxiety, panic, or doubt than appearances suggest. By opening conversations and checking in on one another, we create the conditions for resilience not only in high-performance sport, but in every aspect of life.
Setbacks are inevitable, and recovery is possible. Whether physical or mental, the path back often starts with small, manageable steps and the courage to be open about what we are facing.
