ABSTRACT
I was born in 1931, in Buffalo, New York, and have been a feminist psychotherapist since 1969. From 1961 until 1967 I taught developmental psychology in New York City area colleges. When my second child was born in 1967, I wanted to work at home to be able to care for her, or at least supervise her early care, so, somewhat reluctantly, because I preferred academic psychology, I became a clinician. I grew to like clinical work much more than I ever thought I would and that is directly the result of the interesting clients I had at that time, the beginning of the feminist therapy movement, and the fascination of the feminist struggle in which I soon became engaged.
