Gratitude in 2020
As we close out 2020, I wanted to share some gratitude. First and foremost, I’m so grateful for our excellent therapists who’ve provided essential mental health services through this challenging and uncertain year and our administrative staff who’ve kept our offices running smoothly. I’m grateful for our clients who’ve been doing such important and transformative work and have shifted so gracefully to tele-therapy.
Thank you to all our medical and mental health workers, scientists, chaplains, delivery folks, grocery store workers, store workers, artists, musicians and everyone who has shared kindness, light, and skills that have helped us get through this year. This list is not exhaustive.
I’m also thankful for the regional and state parks that have made it possible for many of us to run, bike, hike, swim and stay active outdoors.
Podcasts that have been a good listen for those long treadmill runs– specifically Hidden Brain, Code Switch and It’s Been a Minute. All the authors who’ve provided books that have engaged us and kept us going especially, Matt Fitzgerald .
I’m so thankful for family and friends and all humans near and far who’ve weathered many storms this year. Let’s continue to hold each other up, focusing on what’s important and staying hopeful for what’s to come.
Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.
