About

I work with pilots and men in high-pressure careers who are navigating anxiety, burnout, identity challenges, or major life transitions. Many of the people I support are looking for counselling that is practical, confidential, and respectful of their professional context. For pilots concerns about career impact, medical implications often create hesitation around seeking support.

Biography

My approach is collaborative and paced to the individual. We focus on understanding what is happening in your nervous system, your thinking patterns, and your sense of identity — without rushing to labels or assumptions. The goal is to help you regain clarity, stability, and confidence in a way that fits your life. I am a Professional Counsellor located in Cochrane, Alberta working with clients virtually throughout Canada. I specialize in working with adults, men in particular, and with professional pilots. I’m a retired professional pilot. My career began as a flight instructor at Moncton Flight College. I’ve flown corporate, airline, and air ambulance. I’ve been coast to coast to coast in Canada, with considerable time operating in the north. From a couple of thousand feet of gravel north of 60 to some of busiest airspace in North America. After being laid off during Covid I got to be a stay at home dad with my son. I decided I didn't want to spend so much time away from home and that it was time for a career change once he started school. I’ve worked with with numerous therapists of various stripes and an amazing men’s community. I have done so much of my own work and been witness to the work of others in my groups that I realized I had acquired an expereince of my own in helping others. I completed a Professional Counselling Diploma with Rhodes Wellness College in Vancouver, British Columbia. I am registered as a Master Practitioner in Clinical Counselling - Provisional with the Canadian Professional Counsellors Association (CPCA). That’s a mouthfull. Let’s use the term “Professional Counsellor”. I can work with clients located throughout Canada. Choosing to invest in your own healing and growth is always a good idea. You want to have the right partner. Some people are not comfortable looking at these aspects of life. Men in particular, often have a difficut time choosing to attend counselling. I provide and open, no nonsense approach using a variety of modalities to help clients achieve their counselling goals.
