ABOUT GENDER
I am a male.  I can not do anything about this fact.  I like to work with both genders in therapy.  I feel like I can work equally as well with either men or women.  My language seems to be fairly neutral.  I see myself as more of an old time “feminist” which I think benefits both men and women.  I see both sexes moving away from role-based lives and role-based relationships and more towards a process-based relationship predicated upon equality between men and women.  I do not see men and women as enemies, but rather as partners in a struggle to fulfill ourselves.  At each other’s hands we learn more about who we are, what we value and how we want to live our lives both together and independently.
