Dive into Episode #137 of the Psych Health and Safety USA Podcast, featuring host Dr. I. David Daniels, PhD, CSD, VPS, and special guest Dr. Linda McGhee about her journey from a career as a government finance litigator to a second career as a clinical psychologist. There is a documented shortage of psychologists in the United States. According to the American Psychological Association (APA), 60% of psychologists reported having no openings for new patients in a 2022 survey. However, filling the shortage has several issues, including some that are safety-related. The wide-ranging conversation discussed her career and some of the distinctions that exist in the field of psychology. Dr. McGhee also discusses some of the psychological challenges of the field itself and some of the linens and credentialling issues that contribute to the lack of mental health providers in the United States.

Send us a textGreg tells me that perfectionist tendencies can be very useful, but when they get in the way of a good career or patient care there is a problem.

Content Warning: This episode focuses on pregnancy loss and termination of pregnancy for medical reasons. If you're not in the right head space to hear this episode, we suggest you skip ahead and come back if and when you're ready. Please take care of you. Worst-case scenarios suck. There's no way around that. But one way to make it suck slightly less is to be sure everyone involved is invited into the tough conversation about termination of pregnancy (TOP) for medical reasons. When the bad news is fresh is a really tough time to make a decision; having a planned path can at least remove some of the pressure. And not to get too political (but it's hugely relevant), legislation around “personhood” and abortion are making these decisions much harder and limiting the choices patients have regarding their health, their bodies, and their fertility. Everyone needs to know the options available in their state and the risks they may be taking by virtue of where they live. Enter Dr. Julie Bindeman. Dr. Bindeman is a licensed psychologist specializing in reproduction and fertility psychology. She is Founder and Co-owner of Integrative Therapy of Greater Washington, an organization focused on helping people navigate fertility challenges, including pregnancy loss and TOP. Given the sensitivity of the topic, we've included some timestamps for anyone who prefers to skip around and listen only to what's most relevant to them. What you'll hear in this conversation: How Dr. Bindeman got into the field of perinatal mental health. (3:23) The limits of our knowledge on infertility. (9:08) The importance of talking about miscarriages and abortion. (11:45) Abortion and the downstream effects. (15:26) The problem with using euphemisms to describe prenatal testing. (20:50) Framing the decision to terminate a pregnancy. (26:43) Weight loss medications and fertility. (35:10) Mirror Syndrome and delivery. (37:52) Risk of multiples and miscarriage. (42:54) Pregnancies that cause fertility difficulties. (48:44)  Resources: Integrative Therapy of Greater Washington: greaterwashingtontherapy.com greaterwashingtontherapy.com/some-resources More about Dr. Bindeman:  Dr. Julie Bindeman received her Doctorate from George Washington University.

Dr. Linda McGhee is a mental health expert passionate about People of Color and the impact of racial trauma on their lives. After earning a MBA and a J.D., she earned her Ph.D in Clinical Psychology, and began seeing adults and children. She is the current President of the Maryland Psychological Association, and she hosts Good Mental Health on WOLB radio. Take - aways 1. Cultural awareness is important for everyone. 2. What we suffered as children often gets in our way now. 3. It is not just about the child's behavior, but what the behavior is telling us. -- Like an iceberg, there is always much more beneath the surface. 4. The definition of trauma has evolved over the years, and is much broader now. 6. Self-care requires time in the day - be prepared to take it. 7. This achievement culture often weighs us down, and the FaceBook facades of many people have a way of fooling us.

Stefanie Reeves has spent much of her career running government affairs programs for large national associations but has recently transitioned to the broader role of Executive Director for the state organization -- the Maryland Psychological Association. The MPA works with the doctors that do talk therapy, rather than the ones that prescribe medicine. It's been a couple of years since that move but we chat with her about the changes and challenges of working in a staff of four instead of 600. Mental health is one of the most stigmatized areas of health to consider and insuring it is often more difficult than the obvious physical ailments like a broken arm. The Maryland Psychological Association (MPA) is the professional membership association for psychologists and other mental health professionals in the state. Stefanie Reeves is the Executive Director of the Maryland Psychological Association based in Columbia, MD.

SMART Recovery is honored to bring you Dr. Carlo DiClemente, PhD, ABPP, co-creator of the the Stages of Change, speaking about how people maintain change and ways in which to support that in the field of addiction and recovery. Carlo C. DiClemente's Stages of Change, or the Transtheoretical Model of behavior change (TTM), are foundational to SMART's approach to supporting people where they are as they embark in the process of change with regard to addictive behavior. Dr. DiClemente is most widely known for his co-authorship of the self-help book, Changing for Good. Dr. DiClemente's career-long passion and dedication to create and research a functional, multidimensional and integrated care model for treating addictions has influenced the practice of providers from multiple disciplines. His thoughtful articles are highly cited in the field of addictive behavior. His pioneering views on motivation, mechanisms of change and natural recovery have transformed clinical practice and influenced research in psychology, health and mental health. He has used stages and processes of change to understand how risk and protective factors influence initiation and recovery from addictions and created an innovative framework for linking prevention and treatment. In this talk, he emphasizes that the locus of change lies within the individual's personal processes, even while counselors, therapists, and facilitators may offer a variety of helpful methods and choices for healthy change.   Dr. Carlo DiClemente is currently University of Maryland, Baltimore County presidential research professor of psychology, Director of MDQuit, Tobacco Resource Center, the Center for Community Collaboration. For his work in the addictions, Dr. DiClemente was given the Innovators Combating Substance Abuse award by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the John P. McGovern Award from the American Society on Addiction Medicine (ASAM), and a Distinguished Contribution to Scientific Psychology award by the Maryland Psychological Association and the American Psychological Association Division on Addictions. He has served as president of the APA Division on Addictions (50) and is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association and the Association for Psychological Science. In 2007 he was named the first Lipitz Professor of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences at UMBC, in 2011 he was named as Presidential Research Professor at UMBC.
