Profile

Formation as a therapist is not a one-time event, but is ongoing. Much as both artists and scientists continually acquire & develop new knowledge & skills, so must a therapist. Development begins with formal education, and the vital graduate education and basic training programs. It then continues with ongoing advanced studies and life experience. Here’s a list of the places I developed my skills. Here also is a list of my affiliations: where I honor my passions and commitments, and continue to learn.
