likes reality therapy: If what you are doing is not working do something
different. I like to apply this to medicine. There are many things we are
doing that don't work and actually hurt. Many of them are discussed in
this site.
Before studying medicine I spent 5
years in college and graduate school studying history, with a special
interest on the history of ideas. I'm sure that this background has
impacted on the way that I have approached health care and the practice of
medicine.
Jerry taught elementary school,
special education, became a school counselor, and then a registered play
therapist, then a play therapist supervisor. Play is how children talk and
registered play therapists are trained (graduate level courses and 550
hours of supervised training) to give language to that play. She is
convinced, as am I, that the majority of problems in our society and the
world come from early childhood trauma, or from faulty practices of well
meaning parents and care givers. From
these pages you should be able to see our dual interests: in what works, and
in
getting at the root of problems.
