More than 40 years ago, I began my practice as a social worker in church-related settings-- first a Baptist child and family services agency, then a Christian counseling center, and later, a Catholic residential treatment home for adolescent girls.

It was immensely scary at first, but by sticking with my personal brand of evidence-based, scientific research, translated into "human" language, my whole world changed. I became location independent and discovered a new, immensely rewarding world of giving other people information that could potentially really make a difference in their lives.
