Expertise in Internet-Based Social Life
Today, an ever-increasing portion of social life takes place through digital media. Text messages, Skype, Twitter, and Facebook are just a few of the innovative environments where crucial social exchanges occur in people's lives.

Psychology students in training: Private practice is alive and well.
I gave a talk last week to the pre-doctoral internship class at Pace University’s counseling center on how to get started in private practice.
