Welcome to the Bluebonnet Counseling Association

Message From The President

Dear Colleagues,

I am humbled and excited to serve as the new President of our Bluebonnet Counseling Association (BCA) for the 2022-2023 term. As we seek to create lasting change in the mental health and healing of our rural communities, organizations like BCA are extremely critical. As the President of BCA, I am honored to co-lead us as we foster a culture of resilience and hope in times when uncertainty and change are the glaring constants.

BCA covers seven counties that includes Bastrop, Burleson, Caldwell, Fayette, Gonzales, Lee and Milam. This expansive area provides a unique opportunity for collective progress in diverse communities across Texas. Following the guidance of the Texas Counseling Association, we plan to:

• Advocate for the mental health of all Texans and beyond;
• Create enhanced community collaborations;
• Promote the growth and capacity for mental health professionals, students and community members; and
• Grow our chapter to represent the communities of our 7 county service area.

As we move forward to create a renewed vision for our chapter, I look forward to broadening our network. With a deep focus on equity, belonging and advocacy, the Bluebonnet Counseling Association is sure to be an innovator and leader within our profession.

Please consider joining us as we evolve!! Visit: https://blca.txca.org/.

In Wellness,

Krystal Grimes, M.S., LPC

President, Bluebonnet Counseling Association
