On this day in 2014, Illinois made history as the third state in the U.S. to enact prescriptive authority for psychologists, and the road to that milestone was anything but simple.

In this episode of The Continuing Evolution and History of RxP, host Dr. George Kapalka sits down with Dr. Beth Rom-Rymer to share the inside story: the legislative strategy, the coalition-building, the advocacy and fundraising, and the years of stakeholder engagement that made it possible.

Dr. Rom-Rymer also explains what Illinois's distinctive clinical psychopharmacology training model means for the future of mental health access and explores the growing international momentum for psychologist prescribing in countries like Canada and South Africa. If you care about the behavioral health workforce, healthcare policy, or the evolving scope of practice for psychologists, this episode is essential listening.

Today, we commemorate Juneteenth and honor the enduring pursuit of freedom, equality, and justice.

As we reflect on the power of collective action and community, we are reminded that: "People are stronger when they come together, not when they're divided, so the collective energy that builds to propel societal changes is incredibly powerful."

May this day inspire us to continue learning, listening, and working together to create meaningful change.

Pride Month is here, and we're showing up with a conversation that matters. 🏳️‍🌈🎙️

In this special episode of MACC: Inside the Session, hosts Dr. Cheryl Fisher and Dr. Jason Branch sit down with Dr. Elizabeth Watters and Dr. Winter Wiorkowski for a deeply personal, clinically rich discussion on LGBTQIA2S+ identity, advocacy, and affirming mental health care.

Through candid storytelling and real clinical insight, they unpack:

🌈 Gender identity, nonbinary experiences, and pronouns—what they mean and why they matter
💬 Understanding asexuality and polyamory to provide nuanced care
⚠️ The ongoing realities of navigating safety, stigma, and systemic discrimination
🤝 Why curiosity over judgment is the foundation of meaningful allyship
💡 The clinician's responsibility to create culturally responsive, affirming spaces
🚫 The documented harm of conversion therapy and why it has no place in ethical practice
💙 How community healing, chosen family, and representation sustain and protect

Centered on the idea that education is liberation, this episode challenges all of us—clinicians, students, and allies alike—to move beyond fear and assumptions, toward empathy, accountability, and authentic human connection.

Happy Pride. Press play. 🎙️✨

"What a full circle moment to keynote the Alliant LA and Irvine campus commencement ceremony and send off this class exactly 20 years after my own graduation! Nothing can describe the mixture of jubilation, pride, and nostalgia to stand on that stage and tell my journey as a q***r Asian American female immigrant and first generation college student who became a successful psychologist and leader. My story has twists and turns but ultimately brought me to this point in time and why I challenged these graduates to not be afraid to take risks or be different and to find their community to help hone their superpowers. Go forth and be super, c/o 2026!! 🎓🎓🎓"
