Rory Friesen
Certified Biblical Counsellor
I find it an honor and privilege to walk with people through the challenging territory of life. Finding truth, grace, and healing in the face of: addictions, loss, depression, anxiety, marriages under stress, parents in need of support, and hurts of all kinds. My approach is gospel-centred, holistic, and clinically informed.
I’ve spent 25 years ministering in the roles of: Pastor/Phase Manager in a men’s addiction centre, Truant Officer (working with broken and struggling inner-city families), and Pastor of Children and Worship. In recent years I have received a Recognition of Prior Learning from Providence University College & Theological Seminary, as well as certification as a Biblical Counsellor through The Association of Biblical Counsellors of which I am a member.
In my spare time I write and record music, go for walks and garden with my wife of 27 years, and spend time laughing with and hearing the hearts of my adult children. I was born and raised in Winnipeg Canada and currently minister at Trails Church Winnipeg as Music and Member Care Lead.
