Greetings! I’m glad you found the website for Mechanics of Change.  Here you will discover information about human behavior and experience that will make you think—and think differently.

As your host, let me introduce myself: I am Mark A. Hurst, Ph.D. a licensed clinical psychologist in private practice in Olympia, Washington.  I’m also privileged to be faculty in Psychology at The Evergreen State College, and the combination of these two experiences provide a great opportunity for me to stay up-to-the-minute on the field of human interaction.

This website will grow and develop based in part on responses from visitors like you, so feel welcome to contact us with your comments and topics of interest.  As a beginning, look over the blog on “Do You Care What’s True?” and let me know what you think.

Be sure to check out the blog on my philosophical orientation to psychology, too.  I think you’ll find it a different approach, and one that you’ll have fun exploring.

In frequently-updated columns and articles, I hope to continue to awaken your own thoughts on how to create a more satisfying, enjoyable life through The Mechanics of Change.

Mark A. Hurst, Ph.D.
