About The Presenter
Jason A. Seidel, Psy.D., is a licensed psychologist, consultant, and lecturer with a full-time private practice in Denver, Colorado.

He started his psychotherapy practice straight out of graduate school in 1998, and has a 100% private-pay clientele. He is trained in object-relational, existential, body-centered, and other therapies, and specializes in the treatment of anxiety and trauma. He is a past associate of the Institute for the Study of Therapeutic Change; and he consults for the online therapy directory, GoodTherapy.org.

Dr. Seidel offers The Business of Private Practice as a workshop to groups across the country, and provides consultation to individuals and groups. His goal in providing the workshop is to support the power and integrity of psychotherapy by encouraging therapists to increase their value to the field, enabling them to exceed their perceived limits, and inspiring them to value their contribution to society.

His academic work also reflects this goal. See his new critical review of the medicalization of mental process: Seidel, J.A. (2005). Experience is a biochemical intervention: Reconceptualizing the "biologically based mental illness." Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic, 69(2), 157-171.
