Gordon Neufeld

Биография и Путь Автора
Gordon Neufeld built his career at the intersection of clinical practice, developmental theory, and public education. Educated first at the University of Winnipeg and then at the University of British Columbia, he received his doctorate in clinical and developmental psychology in 1975. He later taught personality theory, developmental psychology, and parent-child relationships at UBC for almost two decades. Two early turning points shaped his later work: several years in forensic psychology with violent young offenders, which pushed him toward a theory of aggression, and decades of parent consulting, which convinced him that adults had to become the answer to children rather than merely manage behavior.
