FROM THE CEO’S DESK
As One Door Closes…
It’s with mixed emotions that I take up my electronic quill to write all of you my farewell column. I’ve enjoyed writing these tremendously over the past years, and I hope that you’ve enjoyed reading them. I’ve tried to address issues that are of importance to health service psychologists, and I’m grateful to all of you who’ve taken the time to respond. Not all of you have agreed with my point of view, and some of you have let me know this in strong (and occasionally vehement) terms. This is reassuring. A healthy debate about who we are and what we represent is vital to the well-being of our beloved profession, and if my columns engendered such debate then the effort has been worthwhile.

New York Times bestselling author Dr. Marisa G. Franco is known for digesting and communicating science in ways that resonate deeply enough with people to change their lives. In this episode, she explores how attachment style and perceptions around loneliness influence platonic relationships, how society has deprioritized this type of connection with others, and how we can create stronger friendships.
