A Half a Century of Helping
"In my many years as a therapist I have listened to and talked with thousands of
people from across the globe who have needed a listening ear, and I’ve reached some
important conclusions.
- There is hope for every person
- It is never too late
- Change is possible for each of us
- None of us is as happy as we pretend to be
- We can still grow up and become adults
- Yogi Berra was right, 'It ain’t over ‘till it’s over.'"
The Power of Choice
"Each of us has the power to choose, and this is what makes us human. Exercise
the power of choice by choosing the best possible life."
