Teens and Marijuana Use: Playing Russian Roulette with the Brain

http://washingtonparent.com/articles/1505/1505-teens-and-marijuana-use.php

I, along with two other therapists who work in the addiction field were interviewed for the attached article about teens and marijuana and how it effects the brain.  I feel honored to have gotten to be a part of educating parents and families on this important topic

A client's greatest compliment...

A client's greatest compliment... I must say, this took my breath away (and made me shed a tear of fullness and warmth), when a former client sent me this article today telling me that her therapy space was 'grace'... I can only wish everyone gets some element of 'grace' in their therapy and personal lives regularly! Thank you to those who have given me 'grace'!!! #therapy #gratitude#appreciation

Robyn's endorsement of PACT...

So, today is clearly self-promotion day and I hope that is ok... :)

I love what I get to do for a living and learning more each day through education helps me continuously grow as a clinician.  Check out my endorsement of Stan Tatkin and the PACT model in PACT's latest newsletter...

Robyn interviewed for an article in the Washington Post...

In case you are interested in seeing the interview I did with The Washington Post for an article with Saving Promise on helping parents teach their children how to have healthy relationships - it's in today's print version of the paper in the Local Living section.

Great article in the Washington Post to raise awareness about preventing DV featuring Saving Promise and an interview I did...

As some of you already know, I am working with this great organization called Saving Promise to help prevent domestic violence and help people learn how to build healthy relationships. The Washington Post decided to help us raise awareness with this great article. Enjoy!
