November 12, 2009 7More often than not when I work with men, a common theme that I run into with them is that they have tried hard to manage their problems by “not thinking about it.” This is a pretty common idea for guys, because hey, if we don’t have to think about stuff, then we don’t have [...]

October 18, 2009 3As Bob Dylan used to say, “and the times they are a changin’!” The climate is changing (no matter what your perspective is on who’s fault it is), the economy is changing (or is stagnantly bad, depending on your perspective), and in many respects, we seem to need to constantly be in tune with how [...]

October 12, 2009 4Before you go getting on my case, I’m not criticizing the President. Hell, I’m not even mad at him for getting the Nobel Prize on Friday. I’m more upset at the fact that the Nobel Committee decided to give him the Prize based on presumed accomplishment, whereas so many others worked hard and could show [...]

September 30, 2009 6So I was meeting with a client over the course of the last week, and we ended up talking a bit about boundaries and how to apply them to her life. Much of the conversation had to do with how to set boundaries with family members and people she loves, which feels something like trying [...]
So I’ve come to a revelation during my time here. I’ve realized that my approach to problems works for most people and most situations. However, when it comes to relationships, or family members, its really difficult for people to separate their problems into what they can and can’t change when they feel as though their [...]

September 21, 2009 6So I’m sitting with my wife today and we’re talking over coffee about our friends and how they’re doing lately. One of the things we noticed was that women and men seem to see their friends very differently. Not that we need another reason to create a difference between men and women mind you, because [...]

September 17, 2009 0So I met with a clinician that I respect and admire, as she’s been in the business longer than I have, and has a ton of insight into the issues of today. You know what we talked about?
Teenagers. Or more rather, The Narcissist Generation.
Now why do I say this, and why the heck am I [...]

September 14, 2009 2So a friend of mine from college decided to do what I do for a living: help people. Only instead of helping them the way I do, he helps people get out of debt and determine if they should go into banruptcy or if there’s another way out. Personally, I think that’s pretty dang cool, [...]

So I’m racking my brain to try to think of something to post. I was dead tired last night and I couldn’t even think straight, so I wasn’t about to try to write something legible for you to read because it would probably look like a combination of rants and long 3 syllable words.
Needless to [...]

In case you didn’t know, the guy in the pic above is Joe Pantoliano, more commonly known as Joey Pants (though I remember him best as Cypher from the Matrix). Now this post isn’t about me being a fanboy, because there are plenty of other people I could be a fanboy about (like Johnny Depp, Jason Statham [...]
