SOS Help For Emotions: Managing Anxiety, Anger, and Depression (an adult self-help book in 7 languages) and SOS Help For Parents (in 18 languages) are two books that I have written based on my professional experience and on research studies of others. Both books are available in Spanish.

I live in Bowling Green, Kentucky and am Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green, Kentucky where I taught in the Department of Psychology for over 30 years. Also, I have taught counseling courses in Germany and Italy as an Adjunct Professor of Education for Boston University. For a year I traveled the country giving seminars for mental health professionals and educators.

I have used most all of the techniques described in SOS Help For Parents with my own two sons as they were growing up. When they were older, I taught them the principles of cognitive behavior therapy (including the ABC's of Emotions) , now described in SOS Help For Emotions.

My professional experience includes work in community mental health centers, hospitals, counseling centers, and community agencies. I am a member of the American Psychological Association and the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies (ABCT) .

My Ph.D. is in Counseling Psychology from The University of Kansas in Lawrence, Kansas, a program approved by the American Psychological Association. I received traineeship and internship training in Veterans Hospitals in Topeka, Kansas, Leavenworth, Kansas, and Kansas City, Missouri. SOS Programs & Parents Press is a publishing company which I founded.
