About Stress Strategies
 
Stress Strategies was developed by The Psychology Foundation of Canada and its Workplace Mental Health Committee in response to a call from professionals and parents across Canada who expressed a need for a tool aimed at helping adults better manage the stress in their lives.
 
This tool was developed with the help of an expert panel of some of the leading psychologists and stress experts in Canada including: Dr. Robin Alter, Dr. Martin Antony, Dr. Ruth Berman, Dr. Ester Cole, Dr. Liane Davey, Dr. Louise Hartley, Dr. Maria Kokai, Claire McDerment, Dr. Nasreen Khatri, Dr. Janette Pelletier, Dr. Cheryl Pohlman and Dr. Steven Stein. Many others across Canada contributed to its development including, educators, workplace and mental health professionals, trainers involved in delivering the “Kids Have Stress Too!®” program among other volunteers and staff from The Psychology  Foundation of Canada[1].
