Therapists in Cochrane

Making the decision to ask for help is hard, being a man and asking for help is even harder. The expectations of masculinity have changed- I know I’ve lived it! I am a father, husband, friend and professional who is navigating these expectations-to be a protector and provider, a partner and mentor, an empathetic listener and a high-five celebrator.
My greatest learning is that vulnerability is strength, sharing is courage, and understanding yourself is vital. I will meet you where you are and together, we will figure out what will work for you. I have experience working with depression, anxiety, substance abuse, relationship, career change, divorce/separation, parenting, anger, and trauma (workplace/childhood). Let’s talk.

My own practice is focussed on working with men and professional pilots. I spent over 20 years as a professional pilot, from air ambulance to airline, and I have developed a strong ability to assess risk.
My training included a sound academic base and focussed on the soft skills of professional counselling such as listening and attending, making sure a client is seen and heard. I continue taking further training, particularly in areas that have evidence of being effective in treating trauma, PTSD and C-PTSD. My approach is client centered, trauma informed and can include the modalities of EMDR, narative therapy, CBT, REBT, parts work (IFS), and somatic elements.
