The Only Program Built at the Intersection of Counseling and Airline Operations
Founded by Shannon Torres — a private pilot, Master's-level counselor, and former Part 121 airline professional — Aviation Conversations combines clinical training with first-hand knowledge of the training environment your pilots operate in.
Programs are confidential and medically non-reportable, giving pilots a safe channel to address stress and build confidence without risking their certificate or career. Shannon also serves as Director of Training, Pilot Peer Support for AeroPeer, and Aviation Conversations partners with FlightTraq to bring these tools directly into flight instructors' workflow.
