About

Some Psychologists are Christians but I was a Christian Psychologist. Since a person is a body, soul, and spirit, I focused on all three aspects of a person to help achieve whole health. Before working as a Psychologist, I taught in public schools for fourteen years teaching Grades 3 -9. I taught in Maine and Connecticut before moving to Washington State. I have been married since 1971! My wife and I raised two daughters. We enjoy our six grandchildren. I write sonnets! I dabble in poetry. I read historical fiction books. I daily read My Utmost for His Highest by Oswald Chambers. I am writing a book, of course. I enjoy outdoor activities including working on our small farm, hiking, backpacking, and road trips. I have been active in various churches over the years teaching and holding leadership positions. My spouse and I now meet in a small gathering in our homes.
