About me

I am an older counselor/therapist with over 30 years of experience and have worked with a variety of issues over those years. I hold a PH.D. in Counseling Psychology from the Union Institute and an ED.D. from Temple University. I have been a school counselor and family therapist for many of those years so am comfortable working with all ages. Some of those issue include depression, anxiety, ADHD and other learning and behavior disorders, career decisions, conflict, enhancing relationships, how to communicate, parenting, and a variety of other issues such as eating disorders. I am an eclectic therapist using those techniques that work, including CBT, the family therapies, and some existential therapy.
I am married with three grown children and love the outdoors, travel and anything radio. I live with a professional writer with several books and many articles in publication.
