Whole Connection

Many of you have been reading our blogs over this past year and we thank you for joining us in our exploration of many themes and areas of interest.  We have tried to engage with topics reflecting the current atmosphere of our society and broader world.  Our posts were written with the hope of providing helpful information during tough times, supporting the development of new skills while working with our own struggles, and sparking insights on certain situations. In 2019 we’re striving to provide more. First up is a commitment to create video content on our new YouTube channel. We hope to provide mini practices and instructional videos that may help our viewers build new skills. In addition, I will be writing each week on a variety of topics as well as inviting guest writers from both inside and outside the clinic to share their expertise. I believe that we can heal through our community connections, just like we do in groups, so sharing information, teaching new skills, ...

During all of this our 2019-2020 interns moved beautifully through this process and helped each of us move through the process together and in one piece. I know for myself, if they were not here, I would have had a lot more difficulty making it through this difficult year. I owe a lot of my stability now to this group and I know I will greatly miss them as part of our team. Boulder counseling and therapy was given a gift with having these five join us as interns this last year. Although we know wherever they all go, those places will be better because of it, we will still miss them here Read more ...
