 Greetings!
I hope you are enjoying some nice summer weather. It has been beautiful here in Portland! This month, we're announcing a new outpatient therapy group for women who deal with chronic pain. The group will be held in Kennebunk from August 31 - October 19th. We're also extending a warm thanks to our friends at Pierce Atwood who recently visited our Windham campus for their annual Day of Community Service.

New Managing Chronic Pain Group to be Held in Kennebunk from Aug 31 - Oct 19
 Kennebunk Counseling Center is offering a new outpatient therapy group for people who live with chronic pain. The Managing Chronic Pain group is an 8-week group intended for women seeking both professional and peer support for chronic pain in a nurturing environment. This group will offer a cognitive behavioral approach to coping with pain in order to achieve greater fulfillment in one's life. Group members will develop increased insight as to how thoughts, feelings and behaviors impact the perception and experience of pain. Group members can reflect and gain support from one another, as well as practice relaxation and distraction techniques in order to manage their pain. |

Pierce Atwood Day of Community Service
The team worked hard all day long,
and the results were fantastic. The campus, which houses our Residential Rehabilitation, Children And Mothers Program (CAMP) and a future new outpatient
office, looks beautiful inside and out. The crew pitched in with painting,
gardening, moving furniture, setting up a records room and sorting out items
for our yard sale fundraiser.
This work would have been almost
impossible to accomplish without help. All of the Crossroads for Women staff
and clients are thankful that a local firm like Pierce Atwood showed its
support for our programs and services.
The work that Pierce Atwood put in for us on Tuesday helps us
to continue to provide a warm and nurturing environment for our clients.
Thank you, Pierce Atwood!
