I grew up the oldest of three children, roaming the fields, woods and waters around the small and traditional town of Zeeland, Michigan. Our parents valued education in school and church, and they modeled a life of service to others as one's greatest calling. After graduating from Calvin College in 1977 with a degree in psychology, I left West Michigan for my graduate education at the University of Kansas.
With a Ph. D. in Counseling conferred in 1985, I began cultivating my practice of psychotherapy, psychological evaluation, and in time psychoanalysis. After seven years of working at two psychiatric hospitals, much of that with young adolescents, I began full time private practice in 1991 at my current location.

Dr. Lubbers is a highly knowledgeable and skilled therapist. Although he is very accomplished, his attitude is very kind and unassuming during our sessions. I find his feedback and opinions to be thoughtful and genuine. Furthermore, I enjoy the fact I am allowed to work at my own pace. I do not feel pressured to talk about my issues or relive painful memories. He does make an effort to make each session productive. I never feel annoyed or that my time has been wasted after leaving his office.
