My journey of discovery began on a farm near Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada. At age 18, I went to Chicago to attend university and seminary. After some years as a clergyman, I realized I did not want to live and work inside the structure of religion, and became a probation officer.
I
began my private counseling practice in 1965, upon my return from England where I studied with and was trained and supervised by the internationally acclaimed Dr. Frank Lake at the Nottingham Clinic. I later obtained a Master’s Degree from Wilfred Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario.
For 30 years I taught Human Relations at Fanshawe College in London, Ontario, Canada. During this time, I wrote six books. Currently I am co-leading a Bereavement Group in London.
I am the proud father of two daughters, Sharon, who lives in Vancouver, and Ann, who lives in Waterloo.
My goal is to inspire people with my series of books on relationships, the self, purpose, living, learning and growing, and making dreams come true. Using simple yet profound statements accompanied by the illustrations of artist Barry Trower, I help us think about the calm, fervent truth of child innocence which is also the wisdom of the ages. The books are designed to initiate lively discussion or quiet contemplation.
