Gerald G. Jampolsky

The late Gerald G. Jampolsky, MD, was a graduate of UC Berkeley and Stanford Medical School and was a faculty member at the University of San Francisco School of Medicine. To this day, he is recognized as an internationally pioneering authority in the fields of psychiatry, health, attitudes, and education. In 1975, he founded the first Peer Support Groups and the Center for Attitudinal Healing for children, adolescents, and adults facing life-threatening illnesses, as well as a wide array of diverse challenges in everyday life. With the support of Attitudinal Healing International, independent, culturally appropriate, free Centers continue to emerge in dozens of countries on six continents.
