Hi! I'm late to Bluesky. This is my second try. I'm hoping to find some academic community and stick around this time. Since I was gone, I got licensed as a psychologist (10 years post-PhD!) and became passionate about CBT for tinnitus distress. Check it out: www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8CM...

Has anyone taught a course on psychotherapy at a liberal arts college? I'm looking for example syllabi. There are some great resources on ‪@abctnow.bsky.social‬ website, but most seem geared towards grad students. Thanks!

NYT article "What can you do about your tinnitus?" relies exclusively on interviews with ENTs ... 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐬 (in the 98%+ of cases with no known cause). As a result, it misses the chance to help people with tinnitus distress (1/5)

You'll know him from his pioneering work on disgust avoidance and the least-hinged infomercial for a paper ever*, but did you know he does cognitive behavioural therapy for tinnitus too?! Welcome to Bluesky, @tomarmstrongww.bsky.social!
