Writing

I’m a bestselling author on neurodiversity, autism, and overcoming loneliness.

My most recent book is the Audible exclusive Neurodiversity and the Myth of Normal, co-authored with fellow psychologist Dr. Kyler Shumway (who happens to be my best friend – cool, right?).

Our book is a comprehensive explanation of neurodiversity, which is the idea that neurotypes such as autism and ADHD can be viewed as differences, not deficits. It contains practical applications for creating inclusivity and reversing the damage caused by the myth of “normal”, whether you’re neurodivergent or neurotypical yourself. Plus, it’s a lot of fun to listen to (if you don’t believe me, just wait until the chapter with Arnold Schwarzenegger.)

If you want to keep up-to-date with my writing, the best option is my Substack. It’s the place where I share my latest writing that hasn’t quite made it into a book yet, plus more personal reflections.

You might also enjoy my YouTube channel, which focuses on practical tips for building your social life and living life with greater confidence and fulfillment.

Marketing

I founded Marketing for Therapists, the premier digital marketing agency for mental health clinicians. I’m proud of our expert team that helps therapists grow their practices and serve more clients. Every patient we refer is another person who gets the help they need.

I’ve been featured as an expert on digital marketing for therapists by Bloomberg and the American Psychological Association.

Asking “How does that make you feel?”

Oh, and I’m a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in autism, relationships, and executive counseling. I’m not currently accepting new clients, but feel free to reach out if you’re seeking support for yourself or a loved one and I’ll do my best to point you in the right direction.

Get in Touch

I like people, so if you’re a person I want to hear from you. You’re welcome to try shining my symbol on a cloud above Gotham city, but your best bet for getting in touch with me is my contact form.

You can also stay connected by following my Substack or YouTube channel. Prefer social media? Find me on LinkedIn.
