Welcome to the Wisdom Collective

Here, in our digital learning space, you will find a growing library of honest, insightful, and clinically grounded courses.
Our inaugural course, Connecting Bravely in their World: Guidance + creativity for parents navigating screen time use for kids and teenagers in a rapidly changing world was created by CLARA psychotherapists Kristin and Chris Belkofer. With almost 4 decades (!) of combined experience working with youth and families as psychotherapists, art therapists, educators, authors, researchers, and parents, we aim to provide you compassionate and thoughtful guidance in this complicated digital era.Â
We blend cutting edge research, creativity, and real-world experience to offer guidance that’s smart, warm, and refreshingly practical.
This is not therapy.  This is wisdom for real life, delivered with clarity, humor, and empathy.Â
In a world oversaturated with digital clutter and influencers competing for your attention, we'll be here sharing trusted wisdom with you, your family, your workplace, and your communities.Â

Disclaimer
Our courses are created by licensed psychotherapists, but they are educational in nature and not a substitute for therapy. Enrolling and participating in a course does not create a therapeutic relationship. If you need individualized mental health support and you are in Wisconsin, we may be able to help. Click to submit an inquiry for a consultation through our clinic (CLARA Healing Institute) website, and a team member will connect with you for more information.Â
