About

Among the things Alan is or has been at various times are, a husband, a father, a motion picture and television film editor, theatrical producer and director, writer, actor, teacher, student, consultant, web designer, science fiction and fantasy bookstore owner.

After nearly 30 years in the television and film industry in Hollywood, Alan took another turn onto a path not yet taken and completed both a Bachelors and Masters degree in Psychology. The former at the University of LaVerne and the latter at the Buddhist-based University of the West, both in California. He is currently practicing as a Licensed Marriage and Family therapist throughout the state of California. The road goes ever on.

“I use an integrative technique blending traditional psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral therapies with meditation and a post-modern, person-centered approach in order to work with clients in the most effective way for them. I strive to work with clients in a collaborative way focusing on what matters most to them in the moment while keeping an eye on long term progress.“
