Randy has limited availability at this time. Please contact him directly at 250-812-6363 or call the office at 778-265-5660. Randy’s Safe Anger/Loss and Grief Coaching, grounded in his faith-based Christian worldview, emphasizes God’s sovereignty, the transformative power of relationships, and the Holy Spirit’s healing power.

In loss he views the shift from denial to intense anger or rage as a sacred signal—an unfiltered cry of the soul against injustice, loss, or God’s seeming silence.

Anger is a powerful message that something is wrong, but when expressed aggressively, it can destroy the tender fibre of solid relationships.

As a NAMA-certified Safe Anger Coach and author with 14 years of experience, Randy has mentored hundreds of individuals to move towards healthy emotional expression and resilience.

In Person clients will receive a copy of his book, SAFE ANGER FLASHPOINTS.

SAFE ANGER FLASHPOINTS. is available on Amazon in soft cover for Fifteen bucks.

SAFE ANGER FLASHPOINTS is included free with your ©Kindle Unlimited subscription.
