A new year

Happy New Year to all ShrinkRap readers.

The end of 2013 also marks my retirement from clinical practice, although I will continue to do some teaching and consultation for a while.

I will be taking a sabbatical/vacation for the month of January and will let ShrinkRap be silent.    Watch this space for a return in February.

Best wishes for renewed determination to keep our democracy:   fight attempts to restrict some citizens' right to vote;  counter ignorance and bigotry and discrimination;   work to reverse the rapid increase in income inequality;   insist that Congress keep the social safety net and women's right to choose.
