You want him. You love him. He’s broken but you can fix him. You know you’re everything he needs. Not that you actually know that much about him. He’s there and then gone like a beautiful idea or taste. And every time you see him, you want him even more. He is your...
How were you parented? If you say “well,” to me that means your parents provided affirmation, recognition, validation and support. There was relative safety and predictability in your home life. But now the difference between your parents’ unconditional love and...

As a child, what would you have done if you were alone with a tub of your favorite ice cream and a spoon? This isn’t the famous marshmallow experiment – there’s no reward for waiting. And there’s no one telling you what to do. Admit it: you would’ve eaten the whole...
It can be extraordinarily painful to be in love with a person with whom you have a friendship/sexual relationship, who is kind, compassionate and a “good friend”, but is unable to reciprocate your adoration. How can you navigate that relationship in a way...

That’s not what happened. I can’t take on that heat, so maybe I try to convince myself I enjoyed it? But didn’t. It hurt.”“i was in disbelief.”“I felt shame; humiliation.”“I’ll tell some trusted friends to help me process what happened to me.”Like the millions of women in America who endure this treatment daily,I will try to block it out.” ...

E. Jean Carroll's first defamation case against Trump was brutal for the Republican. The newly resolved second case, however, was vastly worse for him.
I haven’t been around for awhile. With all that’s happening in the world I’ve been focused on helping people one-on-one. I hope to make it back here on a more consistent basis, spurred on by having made a list of the best psychologists “in the world.” ... See MoreSee Less
