My student shared that he recently used active listening to support a friend. For the first time, after years of friendship, he and his friend talked about mental health challenges together.
He concluded his paper stating that because of my class, he can now be a better friend. I’m crying 😢

As a Lynx fan, I’ve been heartbroken for these women. But I’m even more so moved by the love they’ve been showing each other and their heartfelt reflections on the relationships they share. Women’s sports are special

Diagnosis as intervention has been a part of my practice for years. Glad to see a wider conversation around the process and impact of diagnosis, especially as self-diagnosis continues to grow
Psychiatrists describe the “Rumpelstiltskin effect”: The surprising power of simply receiving a diagnosis
Psychiatrists describe the “Rumpelstiltskin effect”: The surprising power of simply receiving a diagnosis
A new paper in BJPsych Bulletin proposes that simply receiving a diagnosis can provide therapeutic relief. The authors call this the “Rumpelstiltskin effect,” referring to the power of naming to transform unexplained suffering into something recognizable, legitimate, and emotionally manageable.

How my expressed joy over Taylor’s engagement is a feminist act which counters internalized sexism and shame associated with liking traditionally feminine culture and reclaims celebrity gossip as a means of power and connection rather than a frivolous hobby, and other thoughts I had this week #TNT 🧨

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING
Democrat Catelin Drey FLIPS Iowa SD-1 — a district Trump won by 11.5 points in 2024 — defeating Republican Christopher Prosch in a landslide special election and breaking the GOP supermajority.
