Glenn Close as Albert Nobbs: Truth from the Inside Out

My Trip to Dr. Oz
In early December the Dr. Oz show emailed me, asking if I could help them find people who would be willing to be filmed during an ECT session, and then interviewed later. Dr. Oz wanted to do a show on ECT, presenting it as a medical procedure. I helped the staff of the show, giving them reference materials, connecting them with people who I thought could help. As an aside, I said "If you want me to come to NY to be on the show, I could do that too."

I realize I have been negligent in keeping my blogs on my website up to date. Over the past month I've written three blogs which have received far more hits than previous blogs. If you go to this link: http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/struck-by-living, you can see all the blogs I've posted on Psychology Today. The two blogs I wrote, one on innnovation and one on the challenge freshman in college seem to face with regard to mental health have resonated with many.
Introspection: A Key Ingredient for Mental Health
Can uncertainty be key to inspiration? Here is my most recent Psychology Today blog.
