Dan Fairchild, Ph.D.

Cooperative, empathic interviewing can help you understand your subject as they understand themselves--a result that originates in using effective interpersonal methods while maintaining an available, nonjudgemental stance. Dan Fairchild, Ph.D., received his B.A. from the University of Michigan and his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Miami. For over 20 years he directed multiple programs for children & families and maintained a private practice, where he conducted couples therapy, clinical assessment, and brief individual treatment. He taught courses in interview techniques and individualized clinical assessment at two graduate schools, and supervised interns, practicum students, and clinical staff from multiple universities. He has presented over 200 workshops on a variety of topics for professional and public audiences. Moving to Vancouver from Miami and becoming a Canadian citizen, Dan is on the Board of two local advocacy groups for the elderly, is the Official Photographer for the Vancouver Sculpture Biennale, and has volunteered at the Film & Television Forum for 9 years.
