Advice from the Grizzly Bears

Beschreibung

In Advice from the Grizzly Bears, Dr. Muriel McClellan blends together her knowledge as a psychologist with her love of wildlife photography. During her travels in Alaska, she began to envision a book telling the story of bears speaking to her and asking that she share their wisdom. The book would be full of photos capturing the beauty of Alaska and bears in the wild. Each photo would have a caption combining her knowledge of psychology with ideas from the bears that could be applied to one's daily life. Advice from the Grizzly Bears is a result of that vision. This book can be used in many ways and is thought provoking to adults, as well as children. One can read it alone to reflect on certain ideas. It can be read to children as a way to encourage them to think about choices they can make. Therapist can use the book in counseling sessions to break the ice, especially with young children or teenagers who might not open up easily. . Dr. McClellan hopes that you will enjoy these delightful photos and that the captions will help you live a more satisfied life.

Autor

Dr. McClellan received her Ph.D. from Arizona State University in counseling psychology and her master's degree from UCLA. She completed postdoctoral training in family therapy and established a successful private practice as a psychologist for over 35 years in the Phoenix, Arizona area. She served in leadership positions on a number of community boards and committees. While Dr. McClellan enjoyed her private practice, she was always looking for new ideas and inspiration. Her office looked out onto a lake that was inhabited with various migrating ducks. Between sessions, she would gaze out of the window and long for more time in nature. That is when she began taking classes with Arizona Highways PhotoScapes and attended a workshop on photographing humming birds. After that powerful introduction, she was hooked and began studying with distinguished wildlife photographers around the world. One workshop was in Lake Clark National Park and Preserve in Alaska. It was in Alaska that the bears began to speak to her asking that she share their wisdom. Enjoy what Dr. McClellan discovered in her conversations with these amazing creatures in her book, Advice from the Grizzly Bears.
