Meet Stu

I’m Stu Hoover, a Ph.D. in Counselling Psychology, formerly a power and natural gas trading analyst in the Alberta energy sector. I understand how downturns affect people and their families. I help people who are struggling with life transitions (e.g. career, family, relationship, loss) and recovery (e.g. trauma, depression, stress/anxiety, isolation). I am pleased to work with mature minors and adults and have experience making therapy a “port of entry” for you to engage and achieve your goals.

Away from my office, I practice Judo at a local Judo club here in Edmonton. I enjoy road cycling both for exercise as well as an annual ride to raise money for kids with cancer. And more recently, I’m attempting to learn guitar – It’s a lot more difficult than it looks!
