NEW YORK Kirk Souder, president and executive creative director of Publicis & Hal Riney in San Francisco, is leaving the agency at the end of the year to pursue a career in counseling psychology, he told the agency yesterday.

“It’s a lifestyle choice,” Souder told Adweek. Before joining the agency in April 2003, Souder, a cancer survivor, had spent much of his free time working with cancer patients. “In the past year I’ve come to understand that I really miss it,” he said.
