Coffee with a Counselor

Looking for a therapist in Durango?

Getting started with therapy can be confusing and intimidating. Many people don’t know where to start. That’s why I wanted to create a welcoming, casual, and fun event to make the process of finding a therapist feel more approachable.

Last month, I partnered with the Wellness Social Club to put on “Coffee with a Counselor.” We had a casual and fun day chatting about different types of therapy and how to find a therapist who is a good fit. I taught a variety of skills such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), butterfly tapping (from EMDR), positive affirmations, progressive muscle relaxation (somatic therapy), and a releasing activity (similar to Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT). That way guests can sample different therapeutic styles and see which ones might interested them the most!
