Best of Our Blogs

It’s still early in the week and there are already tons of great posts floating around our site. So much so that it made choosing just five particularly difficult. I’d have to agree with this generous statement made by Twitter follower @counsellingnews: “a round of applause from the AIPC Team for ongoing high quality & interesting content PsychCentral provides.” This goes for our bloggers as well. Great job guys!

While I’m singing out praises, I also want to thank Sonia who was quick to catch an error last week on the Best of Our Blogs. Instead of May 14th, I jumped ahead to the 21st. Talk about spring fever! All in all, thanks again for your support, comments and compliments.  What a supportive, informative and active community we have!

And now for the best posts of the week:
