Greenleaf Counseling Center, LLC. Monday, February 28, 2011. Infertility and Body Image. Our last blog post linked to the "Booty Pops" story on 9news, which talked about young women and body image.

Greenleaf Counseling Center, LLC. Wednesday, October 27, 2010. Is being GLBT a disease? A few weeks ago, Colorado Candidate, Ken Buck, appeared on a television program and compared homosexuality to alcoholism.

Greenleaf Counseling Center, LLC. Tuesday, December 15, 2009. The end of December can be a hectic time for people. Especially for those celebrating Christmas. Even if you do not celebrate Christmas, you still have to deal with those who are stressed about travel and gifts, and you have to figure out what to do when almost everything shuts down for a day (except movie theaters and a few restaurants). No matter who you are, it can a demanding time and challenging to get through. 3 Don’t overschedule. Don&#...

Greenleaf Counseling Center, LLC. Wednesday, December 15, 2010. About ten years ago John Grisham wrote a wonderful book called "Skipping Christmas." The reason I loved it so much is that it pointed out how commercialized the holiday has become, creating more emotional and financial stress for Americans as well as others around the world. When you stop and think about it, buying, addressing and sending Christmas cards. Holiday sweets and breads; going to parties. If decorating is not your cup of tea, its ...

Your resolutions might have gone by the wayside at this point. The weather is dreary and there may not seem to be much on the horizon to look forward too.

Greenleaf Counseling Center, LLC. Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Just wanted to end this short week with a picture. Courtney Morton, LCSW and Millie Funderburk, PsyD, LPC. Personally, I tend to have mixed feelings about the meaning of Thanksgiving because of the implications for Native Americans.

Greenleaf Counseling Center, LLC. Wednesday, February 9, 2011. I (Courtney) spent last weekend at a female-only family reunion. Every year, the women in my husband's family get together for a special weekend of bonding through spending time together. When I first married my husband, I thought it was such a unique thing that the women prioritized time together every year. They welcomed me into their circle, and each year since I've been part of this gathering, our group has grown. View my complete profile.
