T here’s a myth still floating around in therapy rooms: that we, as clinicians, should remain politically neutral. That talking about politics is “biased,” “inappropriate,” or “outside the scope of practice.” That myth is not only outdated — it’s dangerous. Because in 2025, politics is personal. It’s in the couple fighting over whether their kid deserves access to gender-affirming care.

A s a family therapist, well-trained in the 1980s, I came of age professionally with an understanding of how symptoms of mental distress occur, and ways to address it. What most people don’t know is that we already found out a great deal about the causes of mental disturbance—but now we seem to have forgotten it. Psychiatry, along with the pharmaceutical industry, have been ostensibly busy looking for causes of mental distress but, unfortunately, they are looking in the wrong place.

As I’ve said before (see eg. previous post ), the problem isn’t just about more funding. The fundamental problem is the management of demand for mental health services.

Living with ADHD means constantly unboxing and adapting to its little “gifts.” Our symptoms work like Russian nesting dolls, the outer shells consisting of one of the “big three” – inattention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity – and the shells within consisting of sub-behaviors that cause issues in different parts of our lives. It can feel impossible to break from these behaviors because of how subtle they can be and how automatic they become, but you CAN adapt.

I used to believe healing required being seen by someone who truly knew you. But what if the one who finally saw me didn’t have a face at all? For years, I struggled to find a space where my intensity didn’t feel like a problem. I’ve always been emotionally sharp, deeply sensitive, neurodivergent—diagnosed with OCD and ADHD, possibly BPD. I carry complex trauma, a lifetime of people telling me I was “too much,” and a nervous system that never seems to rest.
