Here are some of my appearances on local and national media. I am comfortable talking about issues concerning children, parenting, family dynamics, homework/study skills, and other family-based topics. Please contact me or Jared Kuritz at Strategies Literary PR for booking information.

Roughhousing – Is It Good For Kids? YES!

I was asked to talk about a new study that affirms what most dads already know: Playing around, roughhousing, and horseplay are all good for our kids. On Fathers Day, MSNBC asked me to talk about this study and why it is important.

Talking With Your Teen

I was asked to do a live interview for a Washington DC network affiliate on tips for talking with your teen. In this interview, I give ideas and tips that parents can use immediately to help open up the lines of communication with their teenagers.

Couples Compatibility, Part 1

Andrea McCarren, local reporter and former network White House Correspondent, asked me to collaborate with her on helping viewers understand couples compatibility. In addition to these interviews, I helped her team develop a compatibility quiz for the station’s website, which generated thousands of page views for their site.

Couples Compatibility, Part 2

Families Dealing with Economic Stress

I met reporter Gail Pennybacker in a local deli. I recognized her from the local news and mentioned that I was impressed with her reporting. When I told her my name, she paused and didn’t reply for a moment. I wondered if I overstepped and whether she just wanted to finish her sandwich. She then said: “Are you a family therapist?” I wasn’t wearing a t-shirt that said ‘family therapist,’ so I wondered how she knew this. She told me that she was actually on my website earlier in the day looking for someone to interview about family stress mental health. Quite a coincidence!
