Proud of our little community today!

In the spirit of meeting clients where they are at, virtual is literally that! I want people to have access to a good therapist without barriers. I always give the option of virtual if I'm sick (and can work) or can't get to the office due to weather.

Stick it in the eye of Tom Homan. Learn your rights.

- if you are at home or you lock your door at school, a *judicial* warrant (not an immigration warrant) is needed.
