Biography: 

Dr. Jeff Caron has a PhD in sport psychology from McGill University and he completed postdoctoral fellowships at McGill University and Yale University. He is now a faculty member in the School of Kinesiology and Physical Activity Sciences at Université de Montréal, where he teaches undergraduate- and graduate-level courses in sport and exercise psychology.

Jeff has a research program that focuses on psychosocial aspects of sport-related concussions. Specifically, he is interested in the effective dissemination of concussion education and how to optimize athletes’ return to sport following a concussion.

Jeff’s interest in sport psychology developed from his time as an ice hockey player in the NCAA, QMJHL, and USports. Those experiences inform his applied sport psychology work with athletes and coaches who are interested in maximizing their enjoyment, well-being, and performance in sport.
