“My parents were both very committed to their work and specifically to improving the lives of others. They have always inspired me to have a positive impact on some small part of the world. During graduate school, and the thirty five years since then, I’ve sought to learn and develop the insights, skills and strategies to best help others heal and transform their lives.”
