Understanding Shame: Courage and Authenticity
Often avoided or dismissed, shame holds tremendous potential to shape and affect every aspect of our lives. It can dramatically interfere with all dynamics and the ability to be fully present. The relationship between shame and many clinical issues (addiction, depression, anxiety, violence) is strong, yet many professionals do not even use the word, let alone discuss it openly with clients. Examining Brené Brown's research, and implementing both didactic and experiential learning, we learn to talk about shame, how to be resilient and how to help others create their best lives.

An Examination of Authentic Beauty
Next Workshop: September 25th, 9-1. A workshop for women brave and curious enough to focus on beauty, our bodies and our relationship to both. Examining our lives we consider our concepts of beauty; what we identify as beautiful in ourselves and others; where, how we find beauty in our world; and the impact these views have on our lives. Using art therapy, meditation, dialogue, we look at judgments we live with culturally; we learn about living without judgment and techniques for living creatively, with a reawakened awareness of beauty. Profound change can be a natural outcome of this experience.

Study and Consultation Group
This is a weekly professional meeting, for clinicians who are serious about deepening their practice, their understanding of clinical material and the issues related to managing a clinical practice. We examine interesting or confusing clinical situations, and look at current articles, books, research, and new ideas relevant to our work or interests. The value of the opportunity to share our clinical experiences with others professionally is vital to our own growth. Some of our greatest learning as clinicians occurs in these settings. Open to most, upon screening.
