Bob was born on January 24, 1948 in Kansas City, Missouri. In early childhood, his family moved to La Canada, California. He often shared and enjoyed fond memories of family summer vacationing at the La Jolla Beach and Racquet Club.
After Bob graduated from La Canada High School, he attended Chapman University where he obtained a degree in psychology. His desire to learn and help others led him to pursue further education. He obtained his Master’s degree from Pepperdine University and his Doctorate degree from California Graduate Institute. In 1985 he began his clinical practice in Orange. Bob was dedicated to his work and practiced in Orange for almost 40 years. He also enjoyed playing tennis, watching sports and being with family.
