Should we add human emotion to AI? Ilya Sutskever argues emotion isn’t a flaw—it’s central to human decision-making, with logic often following emotion. Some think emotional AI could be safer and smarter. Others worry it could be more unpredictable. www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/cult...

Some parents are turning to microdosing to manage stress, but the evidence is limited and risks are often overlooked. I sat down with Today's Parent to further discuss. Check out the article here: www.todaysparent.com/family/paren...

Don’t overlook the CPA’s proposed by-law changes. Behind the language is a shift that weakens transparency and sidelines BIPOC leadership in psychology. Psychologists vote No. www.mentalhealthdisparities.org/cpa-proposal...

Children deserve more than survival; they deserve belonging, dignity, and love. Racism can leave invisible scars, but building cultural pride at home and naming the pain aloud can help children heal. No child should struggle just to feel wanted. americanmuslimtoday.com/details/91f9...

The psychologist workforce in Canada is shrinking while mental health care needs continues to rise. Fewer providers means longer waitlists, higher burnout, and people left without access to support. Read the full piece here: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/cult...

I joined Dr. Linda McGhee to discuss why I developed the Unrest Questionnaire to help clinicians assess racial trauma, and how we can better identify OCD in diverse populations to ensure everyone gets the right care. Listen here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rxw0...
