Trauma, addiction, and the flight from intimacy
Counselor Magazine
In today’s hectic, fragmented world almost everyone wants more emotional connection and physical intimacy to help balance our increasingly technological lifestyles. In intimate relationships we feel safe to talk about our deepest and most personal feelings, thoughts, and problems without judgment, criticism, ridicule or betrayal of confidence. Authentic intimacy supports an inner journey, allowing a soul-to-soul connections with others within which we can share both our wounds and our divinity.

Prodependence: A new paradigm for relational counseling
Counselor Magazine
Robert Weiss writes: In my practice and my writing, I use the term “prodependence” to describe healthy interdependence and intimacy in the modern world. For me, prodependence is the logical, expected, adult-life outcome of healthy childhood attachment and development. With prodependence, we care for, watch out for, and support our loved ones — at times to our own detriment — and they do the same for us.

What happens when socialization is needed?
Star Local Media
For weeks medical experts have told the public that social distancing and staying at home are the best ways to slow the spread of COVID-19.
