Better Than Cured

From the site, by psychiatrist Christine Forest:

"Working as a psychiatrist for over ten years, last seven in private practice, I have constantly searched for better ways to help my patients. I designed BETTER THAN CURED PROGRAM with this thought in mind...Here is in brief my journey: after graduating from medical school at the University of Medicine Timisoara, Romania, I specialized for four years in psychiatry at the University of Southern California. I am affiliated with Cedars Sinai hospital and I have my own private practice. For more information about my medical practice, please visit my web site at drforest.com."

Fxck Feelings

About the anonymous author:

"Dr. Lastname is the pseudonym of a psychiatrist and his not-MD writing partner. The good doctor believes his advice is right and your goal is probably wrong. This is because he has two (count'em) Harvard degrees (one in Latin) and you don't, and maybe also because he's gotten old and cranky treating many, many patients, both mentally ill and not particularly ill, under the "Thou Shalt Not Whine" sign in his office. His writing partner has been published in several pop culture magazines and an essay collection here and there. The doctor answers your questions, the writer puts them into words, and someday, they will reveal what their actual last names are."

Stressed to Zest

Dr. James Hawkins writes, "The key purpose of this blog/website on stress, health and wellbeing is to be helpful. It is written for various overlapping groups of people – clients who have come to see me for therapy, other health professionals, and interested members of the general public. I also write for myself – to explore and clarify my own thoughts and feelings."
