- I was born in Oak Park, Illinois on January 8, 1902. I received a B.A., from the University of Wisconsin in 1924, a M.A., from Columbia University in 1928, and a Ph.D. in psychotherapy from Columbia University in 1931. In 1940 I became a professor of psychology at Ohio State University where I stayed until 1945. I then transferred to the University of Chicago in 1945 where I served as the professor of psychology and the executve secretary at the Counseling Center. In 1957 I took a position in the departments of psychology and psychatry at the University of Wisconsin. I became one of the leading figures within psychotherapy and developed a breaking theory of personality development. I was frustrated with the authoritive analysis that therpists were imosing upon their patients. I placed much emphasis on personal awareness and allowed the client to have flexibility in determining the treatment. I believe it is important for the individual to learn to understand himself and make independent choices that are significant in understanding the problem
