Wilson schaef biography
Anne Wilson Schaef, who developed her own approach to healing the whole person called Living in Process, and who wrote 18 books including the New York Times bestseller When Society Becomes an Addict, where she compared western culture to an active alcoholic, passed away at her home in Arkansas on January 19th.
She was 85.
Anne continually developed LIP out of the ancient teachings of her ancestors and her own life experience during the past 40 years. She was raised in the traditional Cherokee way by her mother and her great grandmother, and carried the principles taught her into her life and her work.
She earned a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Union Institute in Ohio and an honorary doctorate in Human Letters from Kenyon College in Kenyon, Ohio. After practicing for many years, she left the field of psychology and psychotherapy in 1984 as she was developing the groundbreaking LIP work.
