I left Bothell in August, 1961 to attend Graceland College in Lamoni, Iowa. I received a Bachelor's Degree in Social Studies in 1965. Following 3 years in the Army, I completed my Master's Degree in Social Work (1970) and Ph.D. (1975)at The University of Iowa (1970). In 1974, I joined the faculty of the School of Social Work at The University of Texas at Arlington. I continue to work as a Social Work Professor at UTA, and maintain a private psychotherapy practice in Arlington, Texas. I am active in a number of professional organizations, presenting papers on various aspects of psychotherapy methods at conferences nationally and internationally. I have thoroughly enjoyed my career teaching clinical practice methods to graduate students and actively counseling clients in my private practice.

I lived in Iowa from 1961 - 1965, and from 1968 - 1974. I served in the Army at Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri and Fort Sill, Oklahoma from December 1965 to Fall 1968. I accepted a faculty appointment at The University opf Texas at Arlington in August 1974 and have lived in Arlington, Texas ever since.

My wife and I love to travel and with somewhat flexible work schedules manage several trips each year. I am active in a number of professional organizations, presenting papers on various aspects of psychotherapy methods at conferences nationally and internationally. I have continued my passion for cars as a collector. I have several muscle cars, American classics, and a couple later model European cars. Other hobbies include tennis and barbershop singing. I sing baritone in a Barbershop Chorus and am a member of the barbershop quartet, "Cooper Street". Cooper Street performs "gigs" at various venues in the Dallas/Fort Worth area.
