Personal and Family Therapy           By a respectful human being


Relevant Personal Information



I believe in living good values but never imposing them on other people.  I place a strong emphasis on gratitude, for example, but realize that value is not right for everyone.

I believe that one value of a college education should be to teach you that you are no more or less than any other human on the planet.  As such, one should strive to be humble, show respect to others and strive to be tolerant.

I've been married over 30 years and have raised two children - all of whom continue to give me valuable experience that I have used in my work!

I have been active in the men's movement and believe in their efforts to help men be more emotionally available to their families.

I am a life-long learner, un-ceasingly curious.  I like to keep active, play music, and laugh with friends.

I'm originally from St. Louis, however, I've lived here since 1980, which I am told makes me a native Californian!
