I have more than 35 years practical experience in psychology. My career began in 1986, when I completed my PhD. in clinical psychology at the University of Waterloo, Canada. I then worked for 15 years as a clinical psychologist in a variety of settings including hospital clinics, universities and in private practice in Chicago, USA. In 2001, I moved to New Zealand and worked for Health Innovations Holdings as Clinical Director facilitating positive working relationships between GP's and psychologists throughout New Zealand. In 2004, I was invited to establish the training clinic for Victoria University's clinical psychology programme. Since 2007 I have been working in private practice.
