I wrote a chapter on formulating hypnotic suggestions that I’m quite proud of, for Gary Elkins’ 2016 textbook Handbook of Medical and Psychological Hypnosis. It explores the hypnotic dynamics of interpersonal suggestion both inside and outside the context of explicit hypnosis.
As president of APA Division 30, I wrote a series of President’s Letters for the division newsletter discussing the history and current state of psychology and the American Psychological Association. I’m very critical of the directions the APA and the profession of psychology as a whole have gone in my lifetime, and resigned my APA membership when my presidential term expired.
