David Gordon (psychologist)

David Gordon (psychologist)

David Gordon is an American author and trainer and early contributor to the development of Neuro-Linguistic Programming.

Gordon has helped create and shape the field of NLP since some decades yet. Gordon's main areas of contribution have been the use of therapeutic metaphors, inspired by his work with Milton H. Erickson, and the further development of modeling. Together with Graham Dawes, Gordon has developed the "Experiential Array", a modeling tool described in his most recent book Expanding Your World: Modeling the Structure of Experience.

Gordon now lives in the Sonoran Desert in Arizona which he describes as: "with my friends the coyotes, rattlesnakes, tarantulas, scorpions, lizards, and other such beautiful creatures."
