In this edition of the Wise Counsel Podcast, Dr. Van Nuys interviews Dave Herz and Leslie Potter of Vive Inc., a therapeutic mentoring and parent coaching service. Based in Boulder, Colorado, Vive serves families with teens in crisis using a creative and variation on an intensive outpatient model. Three therapists engage with family members. A mentor works with the teen, a parenting coach works with the parents and one who works with the family system in a supervisor role. Through this entire process, the Vive team members emphasize what they call a heart centered model, which is very much in the spirit of the Rogerian conception of unconditional positive regard and the client-centered approach.
