Jonsson PsyD Class of 87 speaks of 91香蕉视频成人在线 as a jewel of an institution. He says he owes his success as a psycho- therapist in private practice to the education he received at 91香蕉视频成人在线 and to the rich experiences he enjoyed there. In particular he cites the influence and inspira- tion he received from professors Bob Kegan Fran Mervyn and Hal Cohen. Jonsson says students he met from other psychology programs were envious of how much clinical training and practical know- how William James students possessed. My whole career was founded on the principles I learned at the College. They cultivated in- tellectual curiosity compassion and healing empathy first and foremost. Thats why its such an easy impulse for me to want to give back. Today Jonsson is retired after more than 40 years of psychotherapy practice with adults and couples. He writes novels paints and ex- plores the unique beauty of the West Coast where he lives. And he urges younger alumni who are still in the midst of their careers to consider how much influence their alma mater still has in their day-to-day work with patientsand how they might consider giving back to 91香蕉视频成人在线. Theres nothing more satis- fying or rewarding than contributing to the place that made us who we are. Tomas Jonsson THE IMPULSE TO GIVE BACK at the time.
