About Dick

I work as a life coach who treats thinking as a practical craft. My background combines formal study in philosophy and anthropology with lived experience of instability, reinvention, and starting over from uncomfortable places. I studied philosophy at the University of Toronto and hold a BSc in Anthropology from the University of Calgary, and I use that training in real time with clients: to name patterns clearly, challenge unhelpful assumptions, and build workable paths forward. In sessions, I bring a calm, precise, and non-dramatic style. I listen closely, map what you are saying against philosophical tools, and help you translate insight into specific actions you can test in your actual life. I care about clarity, dignity, and agency: you set the direction, and I help you think in a way that respects your intelligence and your reality. I am a good fit for people who think a lot, feel deeply, and want more than generic advice. If you value honesty, rigorous reflection, and concrete next steps, we will work well together.

My lessons use philosophy as a working toolkit. Each session treats your life as the “text” and your obstacles as problems to be understood with precision, then addressed with concrete action.

In our work together, you can expect:

Clearer thinking:
We slow your thoughts down, examine assumptions, and separate signal from noise. You learn to spot hidden beliefs that keep you stuck and replace them with more accurate, useful ones.

Values-based direction:
We identify what actually matters to you—your core values, standards, and non-negotiables—so choices stop feeling random or guilt-ridden and start lining up with a coherent inner compass.

Better decisions under pressure:
We borrow tools from philosophy—Socratic questioning, thought experiments, ethical frameworks—to stress-test your options and choose in ways you respect the morning after.

Practical strategies, not just insight:
Every session ends with small, specific experiments: conversations to have, boundaries to try, habits to test. Insight turns into movement.

A respectful, collaborative space:
I treat you as the expert on your own life. My role is to ask sharp questions, bring in useful concepts, and help you see patterns you cannot easily see from the inside.

Over time, these lessons train a different kind of reflex: instead of spiraling or freezing when a problem appears, you pause, name it clearly, understand its structure, and respond from a place of agency. Philosophical coaching becomes a skill you carry into the rest of your life.
