Dear PBTA Members and Friends,
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Michael J Kozak, PhD, PhD, recipient of PBTA’s 2014 Lifetime Achievement Award for his work in understanding and treating anxiety and related conditions. Though his actions, Dr. Kozak brought much wisdom, compassion, kindness, and joy to the world. His contributions to the field of Psychology have reduced suffering for many with OCD, anxiety, and related conditions. The waves of his influence will continue to travel through and into this world in so many ways in the service of reducing suffering.
Wishing all who were touched by him peace, ease, and many fond memories as we grieve the loss of a great man.
May his memory be a blessing.
The PBTA Board
