Diederik Wolsak (RPC, MPCP) is the founder and program director for the Choose-Again Society. He is an international speaker, therapist and counselor. His talks cover topics of healing, love, overcoming anxiety and embracing life.

Prior to his becoming a well-known speaker and therapist, Diedrik Wolsak was a successful entrepreneur and notably also played field hockey internationally for Canada. However, this success was not without personal costs that lead to prolonged alcohol and drug use.

Diedrick Wolsak was born in 1942 in Java, Indonesia and spent the first 3 years of his life in Japanese concentration camps. His journey ultimately led him to change life direction much later when he rejected the conventions of the ego-driven world, overcame his addiction issues, became a counselor and eventually founded the Choose-Again Society.

He currently lives in Costa Rica.
