Creating a Cozy "Hygge" Office for Mental Health Therapists

As the rest of nature slows down and hibernates during winter, embracing hygge can provide a balm to our souls, as we take the time to rest, reflect, and recharge. As mental health therapists, we can ...

How to Be a Present Clinician
Mindfulness meditation is a tool I have been practicing and using for the past 15 years. It has helped me build a strong, intuitive, and empathic practice. It is a tool that I believe is critical for mental health clinicians because the space we spend the most time in is the present. The emotions and stories that we hear and experience from others are intense and full. It takes a lot of practice and support to be effective with so much input and energy. Come join...
