I'm a psychologist (California License #PSY6670), marriage therapist, coach, anger management expert, & author. I've worked with couples & individuals in clinical practice for 40 years & I've taught 1000 over anger management classes. I've co-authored widely-used books based on a model of anger management, now taught to hundreds of certified anger management professionals nationwide. I've been trained in a specialty called "discernment counseling" - a 5-session program to help angry or emotionally disconnected couples on the brink of divorce decide which path to take regarding the future of their relationship.
In addition to my clinical practice, I enjoy writing about self-help topics related to anger management and relationship communication. I have an active anger management blog contaning numerous articles to help you learn the 8 toolsof anger control and communiate more effectively. I also provide dozens of worksheets which you can download to help you identify, track, and progress on issues you are working on.
I earned my Ph.D degree in clinical psychology from Purdue University in 1972. Dince then, I have continued my training and professional growth throughout my career on a regular basis. For instance, I received advanced training in marital therapy from the Gottman Institute in Seattle, Washington. Since then I have received training in RLT (Relational Life Therapy-Terry Real), Discernment Counseling( Dr. Bill Doherty, PACT therapy (Dr Stan Tatkin), Pragmatic/Experiential Therapy (Dr. Brent Atkinson), and The Couples Institute (Drs Ellen Bader and Bill Pearson).
