Speaker Bio
David Nowell, Ph.D., is a clinical neuropsychologist in private practice. His passion for teaching has its roots in his extensive work with conditions like brain injuries and attention-deficit disorder that limit an individual's ability to apply self-understanding to day-to-day organization and planning. A unique aspect of David's clinical work is his attention to the body, the body's wisdom, and to each client's unique history. He teaches professional continuing education workshops around the country.
