    • About Me

      Retired Psychologist/Psychotherapist with certification in HypnoTherapy and Neurolinguistic Programming. (NLP) Divorce Mediation, Marriage and Family Counseling. A born again Christian (since November 1974). The last ten years of my practice I worked primarily with sexual abuse victims of both sexes and all ages. Before that I provided psychotherapy for a very broad range of psychological problems with much work with patients with anxiety disorder or panic disorder, family issues, couples therapy, premarital counseling . Sadly, after over 30 years I was forced to retire due to health problems. Two big heart attacks and three smaller ones, three heart surgeries and advancing emphysema. Moved to Florida and then with no warning or consent I have been blind sided and cut off at the knees like many of you, with Fibromyalgia. My wife is a Princess and a blessing from God for sure. When she is at work our dog Duke is my constant companion.

      Wife, dog and I are nudists and live in a nudist resort in Central Florida. One day I over heard a couple of members here talking about another member and one said, "He is kind of odd." I butted in and said "We ALL are or we wouldn't be walking around naked." Give it a try. Very liberating! So wonderful to get totally connected with nature, as God intended. Ahhhhhhh!

      Treatments

      Surgery Working / Worked
      Have history of kidney stones. Acute renal failure lead to surgery to remove the blockage (stone over 1 CM in diameter). Multiple stones now in both kidneys but they are not moving.
