One therapist’s personal response to the Connecticut tragedy

15 Dec One therapist’s personal response to the Connecticut tragedy

Nate Prentice, LCSW, CAS-PC is a therapist at Psych Choices who recently completed a Certificate of Advanced Studies in Pastoral Counseling. We invite you to read his own recent blog posting where he muses about the recent tragedy in Connecticut.  Nate discusses what we can do, and how we can talk to our children about such horrific events. Says Nate, “Please vote and advocate for enhanced services for behavioral health care, especially services that enhance affordable access to care and services which reduce the stigma associated with seeking care.”  http://nateprentice.wordpress.com/2012/12/14/the-newtown-ct-shooting-what-can-i-do-how-do-i-talk-to-my-kids/
