Dylan Dreyer and Jenna Bush Hager accidentally twin on TODAY — their co-stars’ reactions are priceless

Dylan Dreyer and Jenna Bush Hager accidentally twin on TODAY — their co-stars’ reactions are priceless

Published by Daniella Wilson

Jenna Bush Hager and Dylan Dreyer accidentally ended up looking like twins on the air – a very fashionable pair at that! Jenna and Dylan, both 44, showed up for NBC’s TODAY Show on Thursday, June 4 coincidentally in very similar looks – powder blue sleeveless mini dresses with blonde bobs, with Dylan’s having a large bow feature by the neckline. As can be seen in the video above, their co-hosts quickly dubbed the moment “beautiful,” and clearly the moment was unplanned, with the two anchors revealing that while they had seen each other in the dressing room beforehand, they weren’t exactly aware of what each person would wear. Plus, it also helped at least one other co-anchor avoid making his own fashion clash, when Carson Daly admitted that he almost wore the same tie as Craig Melvin. The show later played on the moment on social media, uploading a clip to the TODAY Instagram page with the caption: “@dylandreyernbc and @jennabhager are matching down to the bob!” Fans were quickly enamored by the near-perfect …

Types of Psychological Testing | Psychology Today

Published by Jenni Sidey

Psychologists are often asked to complete assessments, or testing. As a clinical psychologist with primary training focus in pediatric neuropsychology, I frequently get asked to complete neuropsychological assessments, and this term has a very specific meaning. For those in the neuropsychology world, this assessment would be for a child with a known history of a brain injury or illness that likely impacts one’s neurological functioning, such as a brain tumor, seizures, or a serious concussion. However, when I speak to the parents or referring professionals, the request is usually for the assessment of IQ or learning disorders; an assessment psychologist would call this request academic achievement and not neuropsychology. These experiences lead me to believe that a brief explanation of the different types of psychological assessment might be beneficial. What is psychological testing or assessment? Psychological assessment refers to the process psychologists use to evaluate an individual’s cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and personality functioning. This process often includes clinical interviews, behavioral observations, record reviews, and the administration of standardized psychological measures. Standardized measures are carefully developed …

Parents on the Sidelines | Psychology Today

Published by Jenni Sidey

When a child is struggling emotionally, parents will do almost anything to help. They search online late into the night. They sit on waiting lists. They read books and articles. They attend appointments, rearrange work schedules, and worry constantly about whether they are doing enough. Yet many parents discover something unexpected once treatment begins: They find themselves on the sidelines. While professionals focus on assessing, diagnosing, and treating their child, parents are often left with little understanding of how they can contribute to recovery. This arrangement has become so normal that we rarely question it. Yet it raises an important paradox. Parents are among the most influential people in a child’s life, but they are often positioned as observers rather than active participants in treatment. In my research exploring parents’ experiences of their adolescents’ mental health treatment, many described feeling excluded from conversations and decisions about their child’s care. One mother recalled: “The counselor didn’t meet with me. She just went straight into meeting her, which I thought was bizarre because maybe she wanted to …

Assimilating After Psychosis | Psychology Today

Assimilating After Psychosis | Psychology Today

Published by Jenni Sidey

My personal relationship with the word “crazy” has been intense. I thought nothing of the term and used it in jest until my psychotic breaks. But after my first break, I did not hear anyone say the word “crazy” in passing without thinking they were really talking about me. Anytime anyone I know said the word “crazy” in jest during and in early recovery from my illness, I would use that information to deduce this person would judge and reject me if they found out that I have been psychotic before. I am careful not to use this word lightly, because of how this word made me feel when I was recovering from psychological and emotional damage from my breaks. Nowadays, I don’t feel like people are really referring to me when they say that word. Even better though, I’ve lost the sense that I stand out as that person who had psychotic breaks and went to a psych ward multiple times, as if I’m the only person that has ever happened to. It simply …

Actors have been kissing one another on stage for centuries, and most have kept it strictly professional, but many famously haven’t. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie fell in love while playing a married couple in Mr & Mrs Smith; Elizabeth Taylor’s head was turned by future husband Richard Burton on the set of Cleopatra. What exactly happens if that onstage chemistry turns into a full-blown affair? That’s the question behind Sarah Ruhl’s Stage Kiss – the latest production to arrive at London’s Hampstead Theatre. Starring The Witcher’s MyAnna Buring and Dept Q’s Patrick Kennedy, the play follows two actors with a shared romantic past as they’re cast in a production that eerily …
