Dr. Alison Spargo and Dr. Shane Blasko co-facilitate a mindfulness group counseling program with clients spanning young adult to adulthood.

These sessions illustrate group co-leadership, processing within sessions, and implications for other counseling specialists wanting to practice mindfulness with their group counseling clients.
