Introduction

I've been teaching at Cal State since 1965 and have been a Full Professor for about 20 years.

Teaching Interests

The classes I prefer teaching are those with a clinical focus such as Abnormal Psychology, Psychotherapy, Personality and Human Sexuality. My goal in teaching is to make students aware of the complexity of the deeper, unconscious aspects of human behavior. I try and communicate the excitement of the "inner adventure", or the "personal journey" involved in understanding the human experience.

Research Interests

My research interests, which come from my clinical work, center around the unconscious aspects of gender dynamics and male/female rela- tionship behavior, as well as the ways in which gender creates consciousness.

Representative Professional Activities

I have written a series of books and papers related to gender including The Hazards of Being Male, The New Male/Female Relationship and What Men Really Want. I am currently working on a book on "feminine process". I also have a private practice that, in a way, serves as my "laboratory" for clinical research.
