Resources
Resources are valuable part of being a Social Worker/Therapist. I utilize research studies, clinical supervision, books, podcasts and community resources that guide us on the journey toward betterment and healing.
Here are some links to help you on yours. By no means is this an exhaustive list, that would be impossible but some key sources.
