Murphy’s Laws of Mental Health Practice
Murphy’s Laws of Mental Health Practice is a no-holds-barred, darkly humorous look at the absurdities, ironies, and hard truths of life as a mental health provider. Inspired by the infamous Murphy’s Laws of Combat, this book takes aim at the chaos and unpredictability that therapists, counselors, and social workers face every day.
From the never-ending battle against burnout to the cringe-worthy realities of session mishaps, no topic is off-limits. Packed with biting wit and unflinching honesty, this book shines a light on the shared struggles of the profession, turning them into moments of cathartic laughter.
But don’t get it twisted—this isn’t a therapy manual, a clinical guide, or even remotely serious advice. It’s satire, designed to help you laugh at the madness and maybe feel a little less alone in the trenches.
Whether you’re a seasoned mental health warrior or a newbie wondering what you’ve gotten yourself into, Murphy’s Laws of Mental Health Practice is your companion for navigating the chaos with a smile (or at least a knowing smirk).

Many people should have been swallowed at conception and have managed to raise good kids, so you can too. I don't care where you come from; parents face universal issues. It doesn't matter if you are white, black, red, orange, or blue; well, if they are blue, you might want to get them to a doctor because they might have an issue. This guide outlines how to win the battle of raising kids and addresses common parental issues that walk in my clinical office.
