Most mental health advice about trauma recovery is dead wrong. Traditional therapy approaches often make PTSD symptoms worse, not better.

In this video, I'll show you how to recover from trauma without constantly reopening old wounds.

Technology isn't ruining your mental health - your relationship with it is.

Making healthy decisions is one of the most difficult things to do for people struggling with mental illness. Conditions like depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADHD, affect both our conscious thoughts, as well as, our emotional experiences.

I've been there, and I've discovered a powerful DBT technique that changed everything. In this episode, I'll teach you the Wise Mind method to balance your emotional and rational minds, helping you make decisions you won't regret later.

Most self-care advice is toxic positivity wrapped in consumerist propaganda. True self-care isn't about spa days and shopping sprees - it's about treating yourself like someone you're responsible for keeping alive.

I discovered this truth while teaching burnout prevention to healthcare workers, where I developed the concept of "aggressive self-care." This approach treats self-care as seriously as medical intervention, because your wellbeing literally depends on it.

In this episode, I'll show you the three core elements of aggressive self-care that can help you build a solid foundation for mental health, even if you're struggling right now. You'll learn practical strategies for feeling as good as you're capable of feeling on any given day.

Therapist credentials and education don't matter as much as you think. What truly matters is their ability to connect, understand, and implement effective treatment strategies.

I've spent years watching therapists with impressive degrees fail their clients while less decorated professionals create lasting transformations. Through my experience as a clinical psychologist, I've identified three essential questions that separate effective therapists from those who just wing it.

I'm teaching you exactly what to ask your therapist and what answers to look for. You'll learn to spot red flags and identify the right therapist who can genuinely help you heal.

Depression treatments often fail because they focus too much on the mind, ignoring the body. Your brain is an organ first and an emotion-producer second, which changes everything about treatment. Living with treatment-resistant depression isn't just about finding the right therapist or medication. Understanding whether your struggles stem from physical health, self-talk patterns, or connection difficulties can completely transform your recovery journey. In this video, I break down six often-overlooked reasons why your depression might be stubbornly persistent. These insights come from 15 years of clinical experience helping people who thought nothing would ever work.

The harsh reality is that finding a therapist who truly understands chronic mental illness requires exhausting trial and error. In this video, I explain why most therapy techniques fall short for severe mental health issues. You'll learn why your past therapy experiences may have failed you and gain realistic expectations for finding the right help.
