For future physician-activists: This is our lane
Rudolf Virchow, a pioneering physician of the 1800s, once wrote that “politics is nothing but medicine on a large scale”. Over a century later, this nexus is as apparent as ever, and many doctors engage as practitioners of both.

Illegal Immigrants and Crime – Assessing the Evidence
Whether illegal immigrants bring a significant amount of crime to the United States is one of the most important questions to answer in the debate over immigration policy.   President Trump also seems to think so as he launched his campaign in 2015 with the nowinfamous quote: “[Mexican illegal immigrants] are bringing drugs.  They’re bringing crime.  They’re rapists.  And some, I assume, are good people.”  Fromexecutive orders tomajor talking points to the President ’s speeches, which Vox reporter Dara Lind has aptly described as “immigrants are coming over the border to kill you, ” Trump is interested i...

Clean Your Room & Other Dumb, Simplistic Advice
Every year, I will notice a new set of self-help gurus come on the scene. Their well-intended advice is usually repackaged life advice that I could trace back to early 1900s authors and researchers. Some go back even further than that. Of course, if simplistic, dumb advice worked, there’d probably be very little need for psychologists, therapists, and life coaches. “Oh, thanks for letting me know that all I needed to do was to pull myself up and use pure willpower to stop my addiction. That’s super helpful!” Let’s take a look at some of the dumb, simplistic advice being offered to people nowad...

Podcast: Bizarre Questions Psychiatrists and Therapists Have Asked

They don’t know everything.” – Gabe Howard   Highlights From ‘Psychiatrists and Therapists Questions’ Episode [1:00] What is the...

Why Are Relationships So Difficult?
Have you ever wondered why you can meet someone and “know” instantly that you’re attracted to them?  You feel your heart pound, butterflies in your stomach, and an intense desire to “make something happen.”  This is the power of our unconscious.  Our unconscious drives us. We are unable to say, in that moment, exactly what it is that draws us to that person. It is overwhelming, an overpowering combination of sensations that have no words. What is our unconscious? It is a compilation of dynamics, processes, beliefs, attitudes, suppressed memories and feelings. We don’t have access to o...

Sunday Sermonette: brotherly love
Genesis 32, like many of the chapters, is divided oddly. In fact the Masoretic text puts the first verse with chapter 31; while there are clearly two stories in the rest of it. The first one, turgidly written and repetitive, is also illogical. But we ' ll do it now and get it over with.Jacob also went on his way, and the angels of God met him.2 When Jacob saw them, he said, “This is the camp of God!” So he named that place Mahanaim.[b]KJV has " this is God ' s host.
