Just to acquaint
you with a few of my many interests:
As Training Director of the Counseling Psychology Training Program at Stanford University, I am involved in teaching and advising doctoral students. We recently participated in a review of our Program for APA Accreditation. You might be interested in our Accreditation Self-Study which describes the Program in detail. If you just want to know what we are trying to accomplish, the Mission Statement may be sufficient. We also operate the Stanford Counseling Institute, a low-cost counseling service for members of the community. To see some information about the new book that I wrote with Al Levin, click on Luck Is No Accident: Making the Most of Happenstance in Your Life and Career.
One of my research interests is in the effects of beliefs and assumptions on human behavior. One's beliefs affect behavior in all domains of life. I have been particularly interested in career beliefs and have developed the Career Beliefs Inventory. If you scroll to the bottom of the same frame in your browser, you can read about how to help clients make sense of their CBI results and translate them into appropriate action: Al Levin, Betty Krumboltz and I have prepared a workbook entitled Exploring Your Career Beliefs. Then to make sense of how all this fits into career counseling, a chapter called "A Learning Theory of Career Counseling" has been published in the Handbook of Career Counseling and Practice edited by Mark L. Savickas and W. Bruce Walsh.
But life is not all work and no play. One of my great joys is playing the game of tennis. I also happen to be a member of the Palo Alto Tennis Club.
