of life issues and problem solving. Expert testimony in juvenile, civil, and criminal courts; law and counseling interface
within the same paradigm. Assessments and evaluations of the population parameters as delineated; and consultation provided
to both organizational and educational settings. I am certified to provide vision training and application of Piagetian stages
of development in improving the behavior of students of all ages; developmental and learning theories. Training people in
fostering ones own sense of humor is a forte’ of mine.
