If you're curious about how culture intersects with mental health and want to build a more integrative practice, you've come to the right place. I'm developing resources to help mental health professionals and enthusiasts navigate today’s maze of wellness subcultures and experiment with effective treatments.

Members of Care Culture are therapists, coaches, meditators, therapy-curious individuals, wellness entrepreneurs, integration guides and more. All are curious, thoughtful people who want to understand our world and deepen their own practices.

Our content ranges widely in style and subject matter, from essayistic first-person accounts of therapeutic practices we try out, to analytical reporting on history and policy.

Here’s what’s included in the free newsletter:

• Case studies on emerging health subcultures and alternative wellness practices outside the mainstream clinical domain, such as longevity, ancestral diets, and psychedelic therapies.
• Research and analysis of history, policy, and philosophy of psychology, from the foundations of psychoanalysis to mental health law.
• Field reports from places and events I visit like Esalen Institute and Rice University’s Archives of the Impossible conference.

Available to paid members:

• Business analysis exploring trends shaping wellness and mental health in the post-lifestyle economy.

• Experimental practices to try with clients or on your own, and opportunities to join occasional practice groups.

• Paper reviews of recent research in clinical psychology and health care policy.
