FERRIS Brian Obituary

FERRIS, Cameron Brian

Cameron Brian Ferris was born February 21, 1944 in North Bay, Ontario. Brian attended public schools in Sault Ste Marie, Ontario before going on to college at Lake Superior State University and the University of Texas in Austin, TX. He received his PhD in Psychology from the University of Texas. After completing his doctorate, Brian moved to British Columbia where he became a licensed clinical psychologist. Brian dedicated his life to helping others improve their lives and mental health. From 1975 until his death he was in private practice counselling clients individually. Throughout his career he remained up-to-date in his field - exploring, mastering and practicing different therapy methods. His favourite was Intensive Short Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP) as he found this method offered true emotional healing. Additionally, he founded the Youngs-Ferris International Vocational Testing Service in Burnaby, B.C., where he matched clients with their ideal career until he sold the business in 1992.

In his private life, Brian was a funny and fun-loving person who loved travel and adventure. A lifelong Super-fan of the Seattle Seahawks, Brian had an encyclopedic knowledge of the team and never missed a game. Brian died in hospital Wednesday, June 28th. He is survived by his loving wife, Carol Ferris and four children: Pat Dawson (Sault St. Marie, ON), Teresa Ferris (North Vancouver, BC), Hillary Verheyen (Vista, CA) and Ray Laponder (Nanaimo, BC), as well as his six wonderful grandchildren of whom he was very proud.
