We have a choice in how we look at the events that happen in our lives. We can choose to view the events in our life as a series of failure, employing blame and guilt. This is the Failure Road.

Or we can look at life as a journey of experiences, and no matter the outcome, there will always be a lesson to learn. And if we learn even one thing from the experience, we have succeeded! This is the Experience Road. It is a path that embraces success and optimism.

In The Two Roads of Life: Navigating Yourself and Family to Health and Contentment, Dr. Michael Simon draws upon his 43-year Experience Road journey as a clinical psychologist to help everyone from children to adults avoid taking the Failure Road by overcoming emotional and behavioral issues to reach their potentials and have happier lives on the Experience Road.

Dr. Simon uses a Teaching Model approach to treatment. His goal is to teach people how their minds and bodies work with an understanding that encourages and enables problem solving. His strategies are user friendly, specific, creative, and designed to be easily applied.

In the first part of this book, Dr. Simon focuses on childhood and family issues. His novel approach, "The Family as a Country," is a model that provides guidance and structure for developing a healthy and stable family. It examines the needs of both parents and children, while further assessing discipline, love, and attention. His methods are particularly well suited for families with special needs children.

The second part of the book focuses on the needs of adults, individually and as couples. Dr. Simon poses the question, "How Do You Make a Feeling?" He teaches an understanding of how to take control over our exposed nerves and stay tuned into adult thinking, an Experience Road quality. He addresses anxiety, depression, trauma, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Adult Attention Deficit Disorder, communication skills, and hoarding.

Following a long and successful career in suburban Long Island, New York, Dr. Simon and his wife have retired to urban life in Washington, D.C. As he embarks on new journeys, he wrote this book to share all the knowledge he has gained on his Experience Road. The material will be helpful for those seeking understanding and skills for managing emotional/behavioral needs. It will also prove helpful for clinicians in developing and organizing their own practices.

Acerca del autor

Born to Holocaust survivors in Cincinnati, Ohio, and raised in New York City, Dr. Michael Simon's childhood was greatly affected by the pain and suffering his parents had encountered. When he was 13, his father died unexpectedly, hurtling him into a whirlwind of anger and depression. He barely made it into college. But in his second year at C.W. Post College, he discovered psychology and began to understand his emotions, how they were shaped, and how to manage them. Overcoming those early setbacks, he graduated with high honors and went directly into his clinical psychology doctoral studies. He received his doctorate in School, Community, Clinical Psychology from Hofstra University, where he specialized in Cognitive Behavioral Approaches to Treatment. He also holds certificates from the Institute of Rational Psychotherapy and from the Milton Errikson Institute. In addition, he is recognized as a Qualified Psychologist from the Association of State and Provisional Psychology Boards. Dr. Simon is a member of both the American and Washington, D.C., Psychological Associations and is proud to have served a term as president of the Nassau County Psychological Association. He worked for New York State's office of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities, is a former member of the New York Psychological Association, and was also employed by the Salvation Army within its programs for juvenile delinquency. His private practice began in 1976. Along the way, he learned to accept that each of us is a work in progress, from our first day until our last, and this understanding has become a fundamental part of his teaching approach to psychotherapy. Dr. Simon believes that each of us needs to do our emotional work each and every day, continuing to learn from our experiences to stay focused on being an adult. During his 43-year career as a clinical psychologist, Dr. Simon tried to employ those fundamental ideals in his activities outside of his practice, and continues to do so now as he keeps moving forward along the Experience Road to Life. He enjoys hiking and serves as a hike leader with numerous hiking clubs. He also enjoys photography, sports, and science fiction. Having recently relocated to the Washington, D.C., area, with his wife, Maria, he is excited to further explore the region's stunning natural areas and endless museums. He also has two sons and two grandsons. He invites you to learn more about him, his work, and his adventures at his website, DrMichaelJSimonPsychologist.com, and his blog, Drmjsimon51.medium.com.

However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence.
