Antidepressant Medication prescribed by your family doctor


‎"If a physician (Family Doctor) suggests you would benefit
 from antidepressants, ask, 'Do I fit the criteria? Will the
 medication be more effective than placebo?' "
 This is good advice. Also, it is not recommended for a person to
 be on antidepressant medication without being in concurrent talk therapy.

Terri: An excellent film about Teens

This film is authentic, touching and wise. I have worked with a lot of teens and this feels real. This film would be great for clinicians, parents and teens--the best teen film since Juno.
