Americans have traditionally placed great value on self-reliance and fortitude. Recent decades, however, have seen the rise of a therapeutic ethic that views Americans as emotionally underdeveloped, requiring the ministrations of mental-health professionals to cope with life's vicissitudes. Today, having a book for every ailment, a counselor for every crisis, a lawsuit for every grievance, and a TV show for every problem degrades one's native ability to cope with life's challenges. Drawing on established science and common sense, the authors reveal how "therapism" and the burgeoning trauma industry have come to pervade our lives. Topical, provocative, and wryly amusing, One Nation Under Therapy demonstrates that "talking about" problems is no substitute for confronting them.

Two fifty-year-old men arrive at an emergency room with acute chest pain. One is white and the other black. Will they receive the same quality of treatment and have the same chance of recovery? Many experts today insist that their race will profoundly affect how the medical-care system deals with them, and that the black patient will get much inferior care. Is this true? The Health Disparities Myth critically assesses recent research bearing on this question.

She was an assistant professor of psychiatry at Yale University from 1988 to 1993 and remains a lecturer at Yale. From 1993 to 1994 she was a Robert Wood Johnson policy fellow with the Senate Labor and Human Resources Committee. From 1994 to 1996 Satel served as a visiting research scientist at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine.
From 1995 to 1996 she worked as a staff psychiatrist at the District of Columbia Superior Court Pretrial Program and a consultant of Special Committee on Aging at the United States Senate. From 1996 to 1997 she was a professional staff member of Committee on Veteran’s Affairs at the United States Senate.

Her book PC, M.D.: How Political Correctness Is Corrupting Medicine, amasses a great deal of evidence to prove that the practice of medicine has been harmed by "in-doctrinologists" who insist that social injustice is largely responsible for illness among women, minority groups, and the poor.

2000Sally Satel is considered a political conservative.
Sally Satel supports legally recognizing same-sex marriages. She is also a notable voice on the controversial topic of organ donor compensation. In her article "Kidney for Sale: Let’s legally reward the donor" she writes that "we should offer well-informed individuals a reward if they are willing to save a stranger’s life."
Satel has launched an all-out attack on "political correctness" among public health officials, psychologists, social workers, health lawyers, and nursing educators. Her book PC, M.D.: How Political Correctness Is Corrupting Medicine, amasses a great deal of evidence to prove that the practice of medicine has been harmed by "in-doctrinologists" who insist that social injustice is largely responsible for illness among women, minority groups, and the poor. Satel’s concern is that good medicine for individual sick people is being harmed by the insistence of groups more interested in curing society’s ills. Her research and her conclusions have precipitated great controversy in medical circles.
In seven chapters, Satel outlines a number of effects of the "social empowerment agenda," which she deplores. For example, she feels that nursing students are taught too many questionable methods, such as the so-called "therapeutic touch." She also feels that feminists’ concerns about the alleged exploitation of female nurses are over-represented in schools of nursing curricula and that nursing school entrance criteria are being lowered too much to encourage diversity.
Satel also attacks the "consumer-survivor" trend in psychotherapy, which presumes that certain serious conditions, such as schizophrenia, may not be pathological conditions at all. but rather results of changes in the social environment. She questions, moreover, such commonly held opinions that females and minorities face discrimination in the medical profession and that clinical studies have historically been skewed in favor of male subjects.
Sally Satel is a member of the American Medical Association and the American Psychiatric Association.
Physical Characteristics: Sally Satel is the recipient of a kidney donation. She received a kidney from writer Virginia Postrel, after being diagnosed with chronic kidney failure.
