About David

I’m a Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology (MACP) student at Yorkville University with nearly two decades of service in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. My approach is trauma‑informed, collaborative, and grounded in evidence‑based practice. I’m pursuing a practicum in 2027 and welcome conversations with clinics about fit, supervision, and site needs.
