It has been my privilege to provide counselling assistance to clients in Saskatoon since 1977. My style of approach is based on outcome as opposed to process. I strive to provide the tools necessary for you, the client, to deal with the issues at hand so that you can move forward as quickly as possible. I welcome questions and am pleased to explain my observations, opinions and recommendations. It is my hope that by working together we will be able to achieve your goals. I have found that looking for humorous ways of practicing the Serenity Prayer can be interesting and therapeutic.
