Presidents LetterDear Monterey County CAMFT Members, As we move into the heart of another year together, I want to take a moment to celebrate you—the therapists, counselors, colleagues, and community members who make our chapter what it is. This year, the Monterey County Chapter of CAMFT is celebrating 24 years of serving the therapists and communities of Monterey County, and we want you to come celebrate with us! Twenty-four years represents more than a milestone. It represents decades of connection, advocacy, professional development, mutual support, and a shared commitment to the wellbeing of our community. Our community isn't the same without each and every one of you. We hope you'll join us for an opportunity to step away from the demands of our work and simply enjoy being together. We'll be mingling, networking, and celebrating our professional community, while reflecting on the many people who have contributed to the chapter over the years and looking toward the future of mental health care in Monterey County. And, of course, our work together continues. Upcoming Workshop: Glimmers in the DarkWe are also excited to invite you to our upcoming workshop: Glimmers In The Dark: Narrative Approaches to Healing Through Moral Re-Envisioning This workshop will explore narrative approaches to healing through the process of moral re-envisioning—creating space to reconsider the stories, values, identities, and commitments that can emerge in the aftermath of difficult experiences. I hope you'll join us for what promises to be a thoughtful and clinically meaningful opportunity for learning, reflection, and connection with colleagues. As we celebrate 24 years of our chapter, I am reminded that professional organizations are ultimately about relationships. The trainings and events matter, but so do the conversations in the hallway, the colleague who shares a resource, the referral that helps a client find the right support, and the sense that we don't have to do this work alone. Thank you for being part of the Monterey County CAMFT community and for the work you do every day to support the people and families of our region. I look forward to celebrating with you, learning alongside you, and continuing to build a chapter that reflects the creativity, compassion, and dedication of the clinicians we are fortunate to call our colleagues. With gratitude, Brian Wainwright, LMFT |
