I've been a clinical psychologist and an advice-giver for a very long time. People often say that I give good advice because I'm a psychologist. I think I became a psychologist because I was helping people so often in my personal life that I decided it would be good to do it professionally. Either way, I hope you will find this column to be useful, funny, comforting or just interesting to read. Send any questions you would like me to answer in this column at laneymargolis
