This is problematic on so many levels 🤦🏽‍♀️

1.) therapists should not be recommending specific medications. Period. It is out of our scope. I never even recommend SSRIs, because that is out of my scope. I recommend when my clients may need to consult with a prescriber who specializes in that service, but there’s no way for me to know which specific meds they should try. Recommending a GLP-1 with little information about symptoms and background is unethical

2.) While there are many driving forces behind “food noise”, for those engaging in disordered eating patterns, often food noise is simply hunger. A GLP-1 will often exacerbate the underlying problem- not resolve it. Before being prescribed a GLP-1, patients should always be assessed for a history of ED, as this could be contraindicated for this medication.

3.) if you don’t specialize in the issue at hand, why comment and make recommendations at all? Especially when there are already specialists in the group making meaningful and helpful recommendations? It is appropriate in to stay in your lane. I will never make recommendations for issues I don’t specialize in. I defer to people who are better informed than I am.

Love this explanation the f*cked up patriarchal doubled standard around SA and 🍇 by on the

We need to flip the script. Of course survivor need and deserve support and empowerment. But when it comes to prevention efforts- that should NOT be the responsibility of potential victims. Of course we can try to keep ourselves safe, but good grief… it’s up to potential abuser to not actually be abusive! And if they do- be held accountable FFS!

I’m thrilled to share that I will offering assessments again! I have not done assessments in years so I’ve spent the past couple months brushing up on my skills and getting up to date on the research and current measures!

Getting assessed myself earlier this year sparked something in me to remind me both how important and necessary this service is and how difficult it is to access. So, I’m offering the following:

-ADHD, Autism, and Combined ADHD/Autism assessments for adults (18+)

-100% remote assessments; you do everything from the comfort of your own home where you have complete control of your environment and sensory needs

-I’m licensed in 43 states, so if you live in a PSYPACT state, this could be an option for you!

-I’m offering assessments at significantly lower rates than you will find elsewhere. While it is very unfortunate I am unable to accept insurance for these services, my rates are about 50% lower than what is typical- not because it’s lower quality, but simply because I’m trying to make it a bit more accessible (because even as a psychologist I think it’s absurd to charge $5000+ for a psychological assessment)

THIS is how you support a loved one in ED recovery! (And we could ALL benefit from a reminder of what non-toxic masculinity looks like. )Taking the lead on meal prep for a loved one in ED recovery takes an enormous burden of the mental load off them so they can focus on their recovery!

Trying something new to share more content but in a way that is not contributing to what has made social media feel so overwhelming, and frankly, a bit toxic for me.

Appreciations, gratitude and affirmations from a psychologist. Not call outs, criticism, or public humiliation (unless it’s political figures or predators).

Thank you so much to for being real and honest and vulnerable. It’s so important and powerful, especially for BIPOC women 💕

Can you imagine a world where women and children’s (and pretty much any group that isn’t white straight cis rich men) safety and well-being were protected as much as men’s power and ego?

I’ve always felt different. It’s like I get so easily overwhelmed by life compared to others; like there was a memo everyone got that I missed and I’m constantly playing catch up. From the complexities of navigating social setting settings and relationships to making phone calls to balancing professional and personal tasks.

I’ve always just explained it away as me being introverted
And sensitive
And anxious
And neurotic
And awkward

And now I know there’s something more comprehensive and deeper happening. Something neurological.

I’m Autistic.

And while this realization and diagnosis in itself is overwhelming, it’s also very validating, because it explains why I have felt so incredibly disabled at time in my life. Because I am disabled. But am not weak nor have a personal failing which is also a narrative that has gone through my mind.
