Resources

I often write and speak about subjects that may be sensitive for some audiences. On this page, I have compiled a selective, but not exhaustive, list of organizations that offer direct services and provide education programs and initiatives to address eating disorders, intimate partner/domestic violence, mental health, and sexualized violence.

Please access these (or similar) resources if you believe they would be helpful to you or someone you know.
