Rev. Philip Waldrop, NTI Dean
OUnI, M.R.P., M.B.A, OM and Chair of AWAIC
Following a Roman Catholic upbringing, including a Jesuit education, Rev. Philip went to the public University of Michigan. Here he experienced prayer meetings and the charismatic renewal. Travels abroad, an environmental-oriented Masters in Regional Planning, then joining the business world after a Masters in Business Administration continuously broadened him, while the experiences of marriage and raising three now-adult children kept him grounded. A move to the New York City area, then the events of September 11, 2001 sparked further growth. This included the honest step of coming out and recognizing a spiritual bent - including healing gifts. All this led Rev. Phillip to pursue Interfaith ministry, and after seminary training at The New Seminary, he was ordained in 2007.
While continuing in the business world, Rev. Philip served two years as dean of first year students at The New Seminary, was asked to join the Board of A World Alliance of Interfaith Clergy (AWAIC) in 2008 and was elected as its Board Chair in the autumn of 2010. With the assistance of a dedicated Board and a growing membership, A World Alliance of Interfaith Clergy has become more professional and continues to grow into its name.
Rev. Phillip is also chairing the Continuing Education program development committee, and building relationships among Interfaith seminaries, schools and institutes – both in the United States and internationally. In 2009, he attended the Parliament of the World's Religions in Melbourne as a “Parliament Ambassador.” Amidst all this, Rev. Philip does occasional public speaking, sermons, worship services, weddings and other Interfaith services, as well as energy healing based on gifts and training in several modalities.

Margaret Flood, NTI Associate Professor
Gestalt Therapist, BA(Hon. Soc. Dev. St.), CASC
To become a Gestalt Therapist I undertook a 3 year training program with the Gestalt Institute of Toronto - trained with Jorge Rosner who trained with Fritz Pearls. I also have an Honours BA from Waterloo – the degree says Social Development Studies - most of the courses are in psychology and relationship counselling.
I started a Psychology degree at Carleton University but discovered rats and pigeons were not very appealing to me. I moved to Waterloo after 2 years and completed my degree in the Social Development Studies Program. The emphasis here was on therapy and I was introduced to Gestalt and Rogerian counselling.
After graduating I was accepted into the Gestalt Institute of Ottawa which was a branch of the Toronto Institute. The trainers were from Toronto and we often travelled to Toronto and also Chicago for week-end or longer sessions. The emphasis of the training is on the student's own therapy - the belief being that you can't take anyone further than you have gone yourself. Beyond this are the Gestalt principals and techniques. After the training I had a small practice in Ottawa for a year. I also worked with children and teenagers through the Children's Aid and The Youth Services Bureau for 2 years.
I moved to Inuvik in the North West Territories and was employed by Social Services for a year as a youth worker and also as probation and parole officer. Six years and 2 children later I worked as counsellor and Executive Director at a shelter for abused women on Baffin Island. I also spent a year in Yellowknife writing a newsletter that connected all the shelters within the North West Territories. About a year and a half ago I started to see clients again. It had been a long time, mostly taken up by raising 3 wonderful boys. I have also started Reiki training (level 1&2) and I have Level 1 Therapeutic Touch.

Susan Guttridge
BA, MC, Canadian Certified Counsellor
Susan has a MA in Counselling Psychology (University of Calgary) and expertise in trauma therapy, PTSD, and the impact of abuse against women and 10+ years counselling experience.
The Counselling Trac Software System grew out of the need for a user-friendly, secure, and affordable case management system for Counselling professionals. During the course of my education and training, the importance of documentation was always emphasized. After graduating, I worked for several accredited agencies and thus became accustomed to standard record keeping practices. Documentation was maintained via a software program which I found difficult to navigate and inflexible for a diverse range of client needs, presenting problems, goals, and outcomes. Writing a simple case note or report became a lengthy procedure with countless drop-down menus and scores of selection fields. My colleagues and I began to dread documentation and the software system itself took on a menacing guise!
The solution? I teamed up with Martech Solutions Inc., a software development firm located in British Columbia, and started brainstorming what a case management system would look like from a Counsellors perspective. Since our early days in 2008, the Counselling Trac System has grown in functionality, it is offered in English and French, and our customer base has grown from 1 to over 100 customers!
