We so enjoyed having friend and counselor, Mary Brissett share at a recent Vintage Lunch. Below are some resources she recommends as well as a video of her talk.
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:
Adam Young's Podcast - The Place We Find Ourselves
Dan Allender's book - To Be Told is a great place to start
The Allender Center Podcast . They also do a lot of story group workshops that could be beneficial.
Brene Brown's books - Daring Greatly and Atlas of the Heart
Curt Thompson's books and podcast (Being Known)
Also, in addition to individual counseling, New City Counseling offers a number of groups. Some around sexuality, anxiety, the body (these are both didactic and interpersonal) but they also do interpersonal groups with about 5-6 other people.
