Dale Walsh is a coach for the families of those diagnosed with schizophrenia. He is the creator of the LIVELOVE method to help his clients. He is guided by the mantra “Recovery is Always an Option.”
Following a thirteen-week hospitalization after being “extracted” from Dartmouth College in 1975, he was in a private psychiatric program where he was hospitalized nine times over five years.
He then moved into his own unsupervised apartment and returned to college at Fairleigh Dickinson University, from where he graduated magna cum laude in English Literature.
Diagnosed 50 years ago, Dale has been psychosis-free for the past 34. His mental health journey has evolved from total psychosis to a miraculous recovery. He has lived independently for forty years.
Dale is looking for hosts who are truly interested in learning and discussing mental illness and the many issues, both personal and social, it entails.
