WORK HISTORY
Founder and Medical Director @Meier Clinics
Established an excellent, extensive and eclectic standard of care that included helping clients medically, emotionally, and spirituality. Set up clinics around the United States that maintained this standard of care and openness to the spiritual concerns of all, without being offensive to people of all faiths (or no religious faith at all). Only hired therapists (hundreds of psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists over the past 37 years) who would use a variety of techniques, including gestalt, CBT, analysis, insight-oriented and others, modifying them for each client individually rather than specializing in one technique and, like a cookie cutter, forced all clients to be treated by that singular method whether it best fit that client or not. I ask applicants what style of therapy they use, and if they name one, I do not hire them. If they say it depends on the client and are trained in an eclectic variety of techniques, I examine them further if they are. We have evolved into a large non-profit chain that has an international influence. Many of the therapists with writing and research skills have co-authored mostly \"self-help\" books that have sold over 7 million copies in over 20 languages, training therapists in many countries of the world, including Cuba, Russia, Turkey, all of South America, Israel five years in a row, Greece two years, and most of the European nations. We currently do or oversee over 3 million dollars a year of charitable care or education. My personal special love is my Dallas area Day Program, where people in crisis come from all over the world (and locally) to stay in nearby hotels but come to our outpatient clinic in Richardson, Texas for seven hours a day, five days a week, for an average of three to four weeks of intensive group, individual and educational therapy, getting approximately a year\'s worth of weekly outpatient therapy condensed into several weeks of intensive individualized care that I oversee daily.
