    Very interesting stuff over here, well done.

    I have often thought, in my 40+ years of psychiatric practice, that I needed a mentor, someone to help me with the multiple revisions in my evolution as a physician and provider. Now, with a few years, and considerable experience, under my belt I can see in retrospect the advantage of better planning with clearer objectives at the outset. Your work here will be helpful, no doubt about it.

    My quick take on these matters: When you get started – start with a mission, an edge, a section of the vast amount of information available, and then set out to write about it. Condense and collect as much information as you can about that topic, share it, write and speak about it, listen more, and evolve. You will be a better therapist wherever you end up after 40+ years.

    The dead wood out there remains reductionistic, limited in options, and stuck in old thinking. The public can tell this in just a few minutes, as I see so many clients who have spent years wasting time and money with the uniformed, and those that don’t listen. If you aren’t growing regularly, you will think you are wasting your time, and will act like it. They are hungry for a new view, and sick of platitudes and psychobabble.

    My very best training has come from deeper understandings of unsolved problems, from chasing down information relevant to that patient in the office – and as I just mentioned, permitting the client to tell you something you don’t know.

    Remain humble and you will grow as the science grows – defensively think of yourself as the expert, and you will start to solidify, crystallize, and become a pillar of salt.

    Best wishes on your excellent project, – do drop me a note if I can help out in any way,
    Chuck
