He is a published research author, clinical trainer and a therapist who has worked in settings that have included clinics for deaf children, hospitals, prisons, nursing homes, corporate settings, centers for abused women, substance abuse centers, and inpatient facilities. He continues to provide counseling services for veterans, first responders, law enforcement and other emergency personnel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his tenure as the President of the Community Psychological Center in Bangor, Pennsylvania, he developed the Process Way of Life counseling program, and has adapted it into the formal text presented in The Fix Yourself Handbook.
