Officer Training School & Prospect Theory w/ Dr. Dennis Tansley

June 19, 2023

Dr. Dennis Tansley is an amazing chat. He has spent most of his life serving, in some capacity, in the United States Air Force. Today he serves as a Psychologist at the VA. His story from being “a hippie in a van” to Officer Training School (OTS) to now a Counseling Psychologists helping Veterans is fun and moving.

I was introduced to Dr. Tansely by Terry Fossum, author of The Oxcart Technique. Dennis wrote the foreward for Terry’s book, as he has considerable knowledge of “Prospect Theory”, which relates to The Oxcast Technique, as well as quite a few other more esoteric theories of counseling psychology. Our talk meanders through those theories, Dennis’s history of service, and the lengths he went to in order to get into OTS. Enjoy.
