Background information
For the past 15 years I
have worked with a variety of agencies and non-profit organizations
to help others comprehend their lives and draw insight and fresh
perspectives. In 1988, I began volunteering with the Big Brothers
Association, Prevent Blindness Ohio, the Columbus AIDS Task Force,
and the Columbus Ohio Diabetes Association.
After moving to Los Angeles in the early 1990s, I volunteered as
a group facilitator for the Shanti Foundation, providing emotional
support for an HIV positive men's group. For the past five years,
I also have led workshops for the Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Center
and the California Men's Gathering in Malibu.
My experience working with various self help groups led me to Imago
Relationship Therapy, developed by Harville Hendrix, PhD. For the
past five years I have been a volunteer and assistant for "Getting
the Love You Want" workshops in Long Beach, California and
Relationship Solutions, founded by Waverly Farrell. As a result
of my experience, I was compelled to complete my Master's degree
in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University. While completing
my studies at Antioch, I was an MFT trainee for Step Up on Second
in Santa Monica, California. My duties included individual and group
therapy for members of the agency.
Currently, I am working in West Hollywood with individuals, couples,
and groups. I am a member of Imago Couples International, and the
California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists.
