Resources
Below I have included some resources that might be helpful for a variety of people, including crisis contacts, worksheets, and information. If you are a provider and you believe your services might be useful on this page, please contact me to discuss.
Please note that many of these resources are not created/managed by me, and I cannot guarantee your experience. I only select items for this list when I have solid reason to believe they are helpful and align with values of justice and compassion. If you have feedback about this list, please do not hesitate to reach out.
