BA from American University, graduate work at Indiana University
and at Boston University, and MA and Ph.D. in philosophy from Columbus University. My unpublished work includes "Objective Ethics: An Essay Concerning Criteria for Moral Decision" and my dissertation, "Perspective as Philosophical Method: A Treatise on Pluralism and Perspectivism." These writings represent a development of my thought over many years concerning the fundamental basis of moral unity within pluralism and the diversity of values. I am currently writing a book that continues this theme amid the backdrop of the hypnotic metaphor.

My work with hypnosis is an outgrowth of my lifelong interest in philosophy and in the power of the mind to affect and shape reality. The cross-fertilization of philosophy and hypnosis, particularly in the relationship between philosophical perspectivism and hypnotic reframing, is of ongoing interest to me both in terms of my practice and in my writing.

My perspective on hypnotherapy is that it is a method to help balance the analytical and self-conscious processes of the conscious mind with the subjective and conditioned processes of the subconscious mind. Conflicts and blockages can develop within and between both mental spheres, and the ultimate goal is to achieve a graceful harmony between them. This is as true for batting slumps and golfing woes as it is for overeating, anxiety, etc.
