Dave, The Caregiver's Caregiver

I was born to help people feel better about themselves. (It’s a long story!)  Professionally, I became a parish minister.  Honestly, I had a love-hate relationship with that.  (Another long story!)  In that role, I helped grow – by any measure you want to use – three congregations, each under very different circumstances.  Along the way, I became an Adjunct member of the faculty of Candler School of Theology at Emory University.  I helped originate the “Teaching Parish” program there. I earned my doctorate in Counseling at Boston University, was the Director of a non-profit counseling center, and co-founded my own counseling center.  In addition to serving local faith communities, for almost thirty years I have been – and continue to be – an Adjunct faculty member at Bryant University and Johnson & Wales University. I have been helping people in all ages and stages of life, from teens to folks in their nineties – work through feelings of guilt, inadequacy, anxiety, anger, grief, trauma and depression –
