When we love someone, we may want to offer them unlimited, unending care and support. But sometimes, both we and they must accept that our support has to be from afar.

Some therapists who lose their licenses transition to the unregulated life coaching industry, an investigation by The Salt Lake Tribune and ProPublica found. A new law makes it clear that only licensed therapists can provide mental health treatment.

The last time I needed to escape from reality, a few years back, I spent a ton of time playing Skyrim.
Guess what I started playing again last week...

The president, who has framed mental health as a national crisis, paused rules to hold insurers accountable for unlawfully denying coverage. And Congress cut funding to the agency that enforces insurers’ equal treatment of mental and physical health.

Hi. This blog mostly features my adorable cats, Joey and Sheena. Thank you for occasionally indulging me when I post non-feline things.
I just published my novel, Water Dogs. It's the best book about midwestern teens from the 1970s discovering punk rock and saving the universe that I've ever written. Please buy lots of copies from Barnes & Noble (or Amazon).
Coaching is an investment in yourself—but did you know your FSA may cover it? Pre-tax dollars can sometimes be used for mental fitness, stress management, or navigating transitions. Curious how this works? Send me a message and we’ll explore if your FSA can help make coaching more accessible.
Disclaimer: FSA eligibility varies—check with your plan administrator before using funds.
Transitions come in many forms—career shifts, empty nests, health journeys, relationship changes. Each invites us to pause and reimagine life on the other side. I’m opening a free, in-person Community Circle series for adults starting Sept 6. This is not a lecture, but a circle: space to breathe, reflect, and connect with others navigating change. Adults only; registration required. Space is limited!
How many therapists does it take to change a light bulb?
One. But the bulb has to want to change.
this just can't go on further. using AI for mental health only makes things worse
"One in three adults in the #UK are using #AI for emotional support or social interaction. And one in 25 people turned to the tech for support or conversation every day [...] when the chatbots went down, people reported self-described "symptoms of withdrawal", such as feeling anxious or depressed" https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cd6xl3ql3v0o

“Just Let Me Die”: After Insurance Repeatedly Denied a Couple’s Claims, One Psychiatrist Was Their Last Hope
---
After a North Carolina man attempted suicide twice, his wife tried to get him help at an inpatient clinic. But their insurance provider refused to cover the treatment, deeming it “not medically necessary.”

Psychiatric Hospitals Turn Away Patients Who Need Urgent Care. The Facilities Face Few Consequences.
---
Discharging patients who are at risk of harming themselves or others is illegal. But dozens of psychiatric hospitals aren’t honoring the law — and the government isn’t following up.
