Services
Jim has served as a licensed, registered counsellor in Saskatoon for over 19 years. His emphasis is on individual, couple, and family counselling. In those 19 years, Jim has become a trusted authority on personal growth/transformation, verbal and emotional abuse counselling and prevention, as well as proactive relationship coaching.
At some point in life everyone will experience an obstacle or challenge that seems overwhelming. Too often, people suffer in silence or misguided advise, not really knowing what to do to change their circumstance or solve their problems. People get 'stuck' viewing change as an unnecessarily terrifying and painful process that should be avoided.

I have been to other counsellors previously, but Jim has helped me the most in being able to see things differently, and improve how I am feeling about myself and my relationships with others. His direct approach, honest conversations and knowledge is greatly appreciated and I always look forward to talking to him. He is very down to earth and easy to talk with.

My husband and I come from two different worlds and married later in life. We were really struggling with our communication and how to combine our two worlds. We learned the importance of clear and honest communication, how to actively listen to your partner, own your mistakes, and ensure actions match your words. With Jim's help we were able to talk and resolve many of our issues, strengthen our emotional connection and get back to a loving place.
I was pretty shut down emotionally when I first met Jim. It didn't take long for friends and family to notice positive changes in me. My self-awareness

Jim was referred to me years back by a good friend, and I am so grateful I found him. He is just what I was looking for.
He is easy to talk to, gets deep to the root and doesn’t sugar coat a thing. I’ve learned so much about myself, and love the new challenges. He treats out of his lovely home which is beautiful and comfortable. I refer whomever I can to him as he has helped me so greatly. Thank you Jim!

Life changing! That's the best way I can describe my experience with Jim at ACA Counselling. When I first spoke with Jim prior to my first appointment, I had a feeling that he was going to make a difference in my life journey. I was struggling in a serious situation where I couldn't seem to figure out how on earth I was ever going to find the confidence, strength and courage I needed to make the changes that were necessary in my life. What I needed was someone to not just validate what I was feeling and experiencing, but to help me move beyond it -teach me how I could build my self esteem, self

Jim is the kind of counsellor that keeps you looking inward. He asks the hard questions in a way that is not threatening but thought provoking. He is able to pull thoughts from you that help you in your mental health journey, no matter what you are there for. He is very genuine and really has your well being at heart. Everyone has a different journey in life....but when you need some guidance and really are serious about improving your well being, your in good hands with Jim. He has helped me move through some very rough waters... my joy for life has returned. Thanks Jim!!

I was very skeptical about counselling before I started but after meeting with Jim, my opinion has changed. My life is turning around because of him. Jim is so genuine & made me feel like I mattered. I am a much healthier, stronger, & more confident person because of him. He makes people face the hard truth & move forward.
He was also very accommodating with appointments as I came from outside the city. Highly recommend Jim to anyone needing guidance & clarity!!!
