History
Bill's journey to becoming a therapist is an unusual one. In 1975 he married and at that time was a licensed electrical contractor for twenty years in Nevada County. From 1975-2000 he wired houses while his family grew from birthing seven children and then adopting eleven children from the foster system. The years of living with children who suffer from neglect, bi-polar, HDHD, depression, schizophrenia, attachment issues, personality disorders, out of control lying, stealing, and sexually acting out, along with multiple areas of loss caused Bill to decide to go back to school to help adults and families who struggle with these same issues. Bill now has a masters in psychology as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. He knows professionally and firsthand how to help both adults and children who struggle with similar issues. He has gone from wiring houses to helping wiring the brain... successfully.
