What Else Do I Do?
I am a member of the Board of Directors of the Academy of Cognitive and Behavioral therapies. Prior to this, I was on the Board of Directors of the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies for three years. Prior to that, I was on the Board of Directors of the Anxiety and Depression Association of America for six years and am now a member of their Leadership Council. I am also a Founding Member of the New York City Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Association and was the Founding President of the Cognitive Therapy Special Interest Group of the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies.
I like to write. I've written a bunch of articles and book chapters, published my first book (for clinicians) in April 2016 (Treatment Plans and Interventions for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder), my second book (for patients) in January 2018 (The 10-Step Depression Relief Workbook: A Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Approach), my third book (The CBT Workbook for Mental Health) in July of 2021, my fourth book (for clinicians) in March of 2025 (Panic Disorder and Agoraphobia), and have finished a fifth book (for therapists) due out in January 2026 (The Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Workbook for Leaders).
I also frequently give presentations and workshops on a wide range of topics!

I also have a special interest in the identification, implementation and evaluation of emerging technologies (e.g., prescription digital therapeutics, wearable emotion prosthetics, care intelligence solutions, etc.) to improve treatment outcomes. I am a former member of the Scientific Advisory Board of Pacifica (now Sanvello), a former member of the Scientific Advisory Board of Palo Alto Health Sciences (maker of Freespira), and a former member of the Scientific Advisory Board of ExTA (Excel Through Adversity), and am currently a Scientific Advisory Board Member of Eleos Health and HumLife 360.
Finally, I love working with the media, as part of my "mission" is to educate the public on the latest findings from the world of clinical psychology, using a simple, non-sensationalized approach. As such, I have been doing interviews since 2004 and have been featured as an expert on various television and radio shows, as well as in print, and on the web.
