Longtime ECS member, peace educator and psychotherapist E. Betty Levin celebrates her 90th birthday with a potluck lunch followed by an honoring program.
Betty has been a longtime Ethical Culture Society member, peace educator, and psychotherapist. As a private practice psychotherapist for over 40 years, Betty has a broad understanding of contemporary society and tradition-anchored humanistic values, vital for a meaningful human journey. She is a trained psychoanalyst and considers herself a “clinical philosopher.” She has been founder and past president of the N.J. Association of Women Therapists where she has been honored for her “wisdom and contributions to the creativity and development of the Association.” She is past president of ASERVIC, Association for Spirituality, Ethics and Religious Values in Counseling of the New Jersey Counseling Association.
Betty has been a member of the Ethical Culture Movement almost all her adult life and a member of the Essex Society for over 50 years. During this period, she has served as president, on the Board of Trustees and as a Sunday school teacher. Currently, she is active in the Peace Movement. Betty recently spoke to us about her life and experiences as she approached her 90th birthday: “My role models have taught me much. … We keep growing and learning till the end of our days. Achieving knowledge is a life-long experience, not necessarily confined to institutions of learning. The longer you live, the more opportunity to discover morsels to season, digest and absorb. Thus becoming an elder offers the possibility of triumph.”
