I have been in the counseling field for over 41 years. While many counseling practices do focus on problems, I very much like the idea of exploring what you believe would be solutions. In our collaboration, we will work to shrink the influence of problems in your life.

About Portage la Prairie, MB

Dakota Tipi, Southport, High Bluff, Macdonald, Newton Siding, Bagot

Portage la Prairie is located in Western Canada in the Province of Manitoba.  The population is approximately 13,000 and is located around 70 kilometres west of Winnipeg.  There is a river that runs through town, the Assiniboine River, which frequently flooded the downtown area, but a levee was built to divert the waters into Lake Manitoba, north of town.  Portage la Prairie is French and means to carry a canoe overland between waterways (portage).  The town is aptly named as it lies between the Assiniboine River and Lake Manitoba (la prairie). Counselling Portage la Prairie is an integral part of finding harmony in your life again.  A trained therapist can bring you a step closer to reaching your goals and showing you a new path in life.  The economy in Portage la Prairie is mostly made up of agriculture and other supporting industries, such as McCain Foods and Simplot, which are potato processing plants.  The potatoes that are processed here are for McDonald’s and Wendy’s fast food restaurants, plus other commercialized restaurant chains. Can-Oat milling is one of the world’s largest oat milling plants in the world.

Portage la Prairie also has a civilian/military airbase located south of the town, called Southport.  The airbase was established during World War II by the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan.  The airbase trained many thousands of pilots, not just for Canada but military services from around the world.  The base is still in operation for the Canadian Forces and is now home of the Canada Wings Aviation Training Centre.  Christian counselling Portage la Prairie will set your feet on the right track again, and give you renewed hope and motivation in life.  There are also civilian contractors that work out of the airbase, known as Allied Wings.  They work together with the Canadian Forces pilots, by providing air support through computer-aided pilot training by state-of-the-art equipment, as well as through simulators and instructor-led instruction.  They also train helicopter and multi-engine pilots at this airbase.  This is definitely the place to go for quality pilot training.
