Hello new followers! I am a psychologist in the great state of Ohio. I learned to be a therapist treating Vietnam Veterans. My dissertation is on positive change after trauma. My clients are Veterans, police officers, emergency care workers, and first-responders. And I make memes

@confitureeel All in one because I can be forgetful

My energy was already dragging when the days started getting shorter, but the time change jacked me up. I’m glad I remembered an article about high-dose creatine and sleep, because after a week on 15g a day I’m awake at 6am with so much gas in my tank I think I’ll go to the gym.

@yashi09 I dislike New York and Miami for that reason. Where I’m from, you treat strangers like your neighbor and neighbors like your family.

@EdLatimore Bro I hate it, that is a last resort for my allergies. I have to clear the rest of my day and I can’t operate heavy machinery.

@MrT Thank you, Mr. T. And thank you for making me stay in school 🤝

@steadyfervent Been doing it all at once and pooping just fine so far but that’d sure deter my enthusiasm

@DrCamRx @psychfox Thanks to Relational Frame Theory, Talk Therapy is Behavior Therapy

[Jeremy the therapist @psychfox]

@DrCamRx Exposure/desensitization therapies are criminally under discussed. If more men knew therapy exists that doesn't insult masculinity, that gets results, and that focuses on cultivating resilience, I suspect psychotherapy would be much more popular in the male online spaces.

@quantifyqualify @NTFabiano I’m not THAT Freudian

[Edward A. Perin - Psychologist @DoctorPerin]

For cognitive health over the shorter winter days I’ve been doing some bro science self-experimenting with high-dose creatine and I have some n=1 observations. If I get really annoying about it blame @NTFabiano

The 5 functions of treatment, according to Marsha Linehan (RIP):

1) Enhance Capabilities (skills training)

2) Increase Motivation (individual therapy, focusing on chain analysis, validation, target and implement solutions)

3) Assure Generalization in natural environments (planning, telephone coaching, system intervention)

4) Enhance Therapist’s capabilities and motivation to treat effectively (consultation team)

5) Structure Environment to allow progress (family interventions)

This is a rough year for behind-the-scenes military mental health influencers. We lost Edna Foa in March, and now Marsha Linehan. These women touched every VA mental health clinic in the country, and few Vererans will ever know their names.
