About 10 years ago, I began writing a blog, "Barb's Stories From The Couch." I have enjoyed a long successful career as a Licensed Professional Counselor and wanted to share my expertise with others outside my counseling office. I still write a blog found on my web site: www.barbrarussell.com. "Yes! I Said No" is my first book, written in response to many questions received after teaching workshops about setting healthy boundaries and building self esteem.
