Personality + Meaning

My name is Ed Nissen. I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) specializing in empowering people to be the best version of themselves. I do this by simplifying the approach to life’s obstacles based on a model that teaches people how to respond to such obstacles efficiently and confidently. More specifically, this approach will enable you to shift your focus to maximizing your potential in all aspects of your life.

Life can be challenging to navigate, and sometimes unfortunate things happen. How you respond to life defines much of who you are. As I teach you this simplified approach, not only will you become skilled in overcoming issues such as anxiety, depression, and career challenges, you will refine yourself in ways that transform your life and enable you to reach your potential. Perhaps, what you will discover to be most important is a profound enrichment of the relationships in your life.

If you are ready to heal, grow, and, dare I say, evolve, then contact us to schedule a session with me. I only ask that you be willing to put forth the heroic effort it takes to be the best version of yourself.

I have written the draft to my book and will soon begin submitting inquires to literary agents.

The title, if it holds, is “Song of the Hero”.

This project started in June 2018.

Song of the Hero is an exploratory analysis for how men, who are in long-term relationships, have stalled in their growth and relationships, what they can do to correct themselves, and how to transcend a diminished version of themselves all through the challenges presented by their feminine partner. The concepts and theories explored in the book are viewed through the lenses of analytical and evolutionary psychology, biology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, with an undertone of mythology. To illuminate the rather technical analysis of the concepts and theories, I have interwoven a fictional story of a couple’s relationship. Using relatable experiences to illustrate the ideas in the book helps bring them to a manageable level on which the reader can easily translate them into implementable strategies in their personal lives.
