After editing a magazine in London, Derek travelled with a Japanese psychologist in Germany where he became involved in crises counselling, suicide prevention and sexual abuse concerns.
Later in America he gained an M.R.E., in UTS upstate New York, with a focus on psychology and a practicum in group process work. In Arizona, art and psychology were fused to develop art therapy methods applied in sessions in Scottsdale. Some of these results were confirmed by neuronal research at Mayo Clinic nearby, which revealed much improved neuronal activity. Various issues including bipolar disorders and Dyslexia were significantly addressed so the idea that positive changes can take place in various challenging behaviors were confirmed.
Today, Derek lives and works with his family in Denmark and spends much of his time researching and writing.view less
