Mom’s hormones are running rampant after the birth of a child, the baby is screaming bloody murder, the new dad doesn’t know what to do, [...]

It is 4 degrees below zero here in Denver tonight. Yes kids, that’s Fahrenheit and that doesn’t account for wind chill. The weather and a few sad clients remind me of just how many people become depressed from the cold short days and decreased sunshine. There is no reimbursement code for “cabin fever” so now [...]

Mental health professionals across the globe have a little known “secret code book” used to diagnose mental illness, i.e., depression, anxiety, etc. In the US it is called the DSM while in Europe it is called the ICD.

Let’s just suppose there are one or more features on your body that you are not happy with. Imagine that! Well, it’s perfectly natural and okay to have those thoughts, but it is a big mistake to share those thoughts with your partner because ultimately you will convince him or her not to like that part of [...]

It is 12:51AM and the fire alarm in my Denver high-rise is screaming; “fool, jump before you die a miserable death.” My little black cat, the real Dr. Kinsey has left the warmth of our cashmere comforter and is hiding under the bed.
