TGOW was absolutely delighted to have hosted Dr. David Younger on the 8th episode of our podcast series. Dr. Younger was diagnosed with FacioScapuloHumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD) when he was around 4, at the same time that his mother and grandmother were diagnosed. Dr. Younger is a licensed psychologist in Texas and New York with a private practice that is web and phone-based with clients from all over the world. He has been married to his wife for 15 years and they have a 13-year-old son and a 4-year-old-daughter. Dr. Younger provided some rich information on relationships, how to overcome shame, communication and online dating...topics that are very relevant for people both with and without disabilities.
