Originally trained as a mathematician (BA, MA and PhD from Yale, Harvard and University of Southern California, respectively) Jack Zimmerman is a writer, relationship counselor, elder in the expanding community of council practitioners and an intrepid practitioner of transformational intimacy. He was the President of the Ojai Foundation from 1991-2007 and retired as Board Co-Chair in January of 2008 after many years of serving in that capacity. In 2000 in Co-Founded the Ojai Foundation's Center for Council Training in order to more effectively bring council into the mainstream in the US, Israel and more recently, Africa. Jaquelyn McCandless, (BS, University of Chicago; MS and MD, University of Illinois) is a board-certified psychiatrist, creative aging specialist, and an irreverent explorer of sexual alchemy. When her granddaughter, Chelsey, was diagnosed with autism in 1996, Jaquelyn embraced medicine in a new way and over the years became a world-renowned specialist in the biomedical treatment of autism. Her widely read book on the subject has been translated into several languages. For many years she was a member of the Defeat Autism Now! (DAN!) Leadership Council and a regular contributor to DAN and other scientific meetings. For almost forty years Jack and Jaquelyn have been offering a variety of relationship workshops and trainings in the US and abroad---all the while loving and inspiring each other as they explore the inseparability of sexuality and spirituality. They have traveled to Israel several times since 2005 to lead trainings for couples and council practitioners, and to support the growing use of council in that country. Jaquelyn has championed the use of Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) in the treatment of autism and other auto-immune illnesses and, with Jack, has been actively involved in a medical research project in Mali that involved the use of LDN to help HIV positive individuals from developing AIDS symptoms.
