(358-2047)
Forrest prefers to work with as wide an array of people as possible.
He is biased towards a "narrative" and "relational" approach that suggests lasting
growth happens
within conversation, and he is intrigued by recent and ongoing revelations
about how the brain functions and its capacity for change.
Over the years he has worked with youth and adults in a variety
of settings from schools to colleges to the judicial system.
In addition, he has been a jeweler, a realtor,
a journalist and a web designer. And, when the
challenges and wonders of fatherhood and family
allow, he likes to ski and play his harmonica (though not usually at the same time).
