| Bio: |
My parents had eight children. Growing up in a large family was an educational experience as meaningful as any of my degrees, but I have always enjoyed learning about human nature, psychology, counseling, and the human brain, the most complex computer ever made. This thirst for knowledge led to my obtaining the Bachelor's, Master's and PhD degrees.
Along the way I worked in a private tutorial school for students at risk, a state agency for dually diagnosed individuals with developmental disabilities and mental illness, a private residential setting for troubled adolescents, various hospitals leading stop-smoking clinics, counseled senior citizens with depression in nursing homes, worked with a Suicide Prevention Task Force, and engaged in counseling in private practice. For over ten years I have hosted a radio show presenting a variety of mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, stress, ADD, ADHD, OCD, marriage issues, anger management and adjustment disorders. I consider myself to be a general practitioner and I will refer my patients to specialists if the need arises. I am only as successful as my clients. My greatest reward comes from seeing them smile after gaining new skills and self-confidence. |
