In our conversation with Summer we talk a lot about grief and grief counseling work, which is something that all three of us have a passion for. The depth, humility, and universality in this conversation is unmatched in our interviews so far. We promise that this conversation is the opposite of a downer! Summer is so authentic, kind, and hardworking that you will be unable to stop yourself from listening all the way through as we explore what it’s really like to work with grief day-in and day-out. Don’t be afraid; listen in, because man, oh, man is this one a good one.

Felicia is now in private practice for herself! Her practice is called Roots of Healing Therapy and serves all of Texas virtually. Connect with her and check out her website at: https://www.rootsofhealingtherapy.com/
We talk a lot with Felicia about how she connects with and explores the impacts of culture on the mental health field and dig into her passion for working with clients from a culturally-rooted perspective. One big thing we learned from talking with Felicia is that culturally-rooted care is all about having an understanding that culture plays a role in every aspect of someone’s life.

This week Karen learned the American Counseling Association is updating their Code of Ethics and wants feedback from you! Better late than never, we always say, so, please join us in participating in moving our profession into the modern era! ACA Code of Ethics | Counseling Nexus: ACA’s Digital Press, Elevating Access to Counseling Knowledge
This week we are sharing Part 1 of our conversation with Katie La who is a Licensed Professional Counselor Supervisor in Texas. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Houston Baptist University and a Master of Arts in Christian Counseling from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Katie owns a group practice called Cognitive Revival in Frisco, Texas, which provides a wide range of counseling and clinical services. Katie is trained in EMDR, somatic therapy and brainspotting and works as a clinician and a supervisor with a decolonized approach.
With Katie her nontraditional approach to becoming a counselor, to being a counselor, and to running a group practice. Katie talks about how she took a break from her education and internship process to be a stay at home mom and how that impacted her perspective in the field. Katie shares her approach as a practice owner in how she makes sure to outsource as much as she can so she can keep only what works best for her on her plate. A big thing we explore with Katie is her perspective about decolonizing the profession and her way of counseling as she seeks to uncover who people really are.
