We make it easier for clients to find an available, accessible, and skilled provider, and we help therapists with network of mutual support, professional growth, cross-specialty consultation, and the joy of being part of a community.

Most everyone is familiar with the tale of Narcissus. 🪞 He is a cautionary tale against vanity and ego.
But in contemporary times, we see a familiar story play out amongst people of all ages. The idea of an obsession with beauty consuming all of our time, our finances, and our perceptions of worth as people.
There are a lot of factors that go into this. The rise of social media platforms has been accompanied by a rise in filters and photoshop. Almost everywhere we look, we are struck with images of beautiful people: flawless skin, "perfect" bodies, perfect hair. These settle deep into our soul.
This December, we want to invite people to be more aware about the content they consume. There is a motive: there are people who profit off of inventing new insecurities, new viral beauty products, new workout routines. Stand your ground. Tell them that no one can diminish your value by saying you need to alter your appearance.

December 1-7, AKA National Handwashing Awareness Week.
As a group of therapy practitioners, we are looking to promote healthy lifestyles in every way that we can– including our physical wellbeing.
A simple act like washing your hands can be a powerful tool in preventing illness and promoting overall health. 🤲💧
🌐 Global Impact: Handwashing is not just a personal habit; it's a global necessity. Clean hands are crucial in reducing the spread of infections and diseases worldwide. 🌍
🦠 Fight Against Germs: Our hands spend the day petting dogs, opening doors, clearing out expired yogurt. We're picking up germs and bacteria along the way. Washing hands with soap and water helps eliminate these harmful microorganisms, protecting us and our friends from illnesses like colds, flu, and more. 🧼🦠
🚿 Proper Technique Matters: The effectiveness of handwashing lies in the technique. Make sure to scrub all parts of your hands – including wrists, between fingers, and under nails – for at least 20 seconds. 🎵 Need a timer? Hum the opening to Beyonce's "Halo!"🎶
👶 Teach the Next Generation: Instilling good handwashing habits from a young age is essential. Educate children about the importance of washing hands to keep themselves and others healthy. 🧒👧
🤝 Community Responsibility: In a world where our actions impact those around us, proper hand hygiene becomes a collective responsibility. By washing our hands regularly, we contribute to creating a healthier community for everyone. 🤝❤️
🔗 Spread the Word, Not Germs: Together, we can create a ripple effect that promotes good hygiene practices and strengthens the health of our communities! 💬🔄

🐾 The Healing Power of Therapy Dogs 🐾
Furry friends are some of our most powerful allies in promoting mental and emotional well-being 🌈🐶.
Let's take a moment to appreciate all the therapy dogs who do good with their amazing therapist handlers, and talk about the rhyme and reason for therapy dogs.
🤲 Comfort in Canine Companionship: Therapy dogs (like Remy) are specially trained to provide comfort, affection, and support to individuals. Working with Dr. Tim Richardson, Remy's presence can lift spirits and reduce stress levels, creating a calming and positive environment. 🌟🤗
🩺 Health Benefits: Interacting with therapy dogs has been linked to numerous health benefits. From lowering blood pressure and reducing anxiety to boosting overall mood, these four-legged therapists contribute to both physical and mental wellness. 📉❤️
🏥 Healthcare: Therapy dogs play a crucial role in healthcare settings, bringing smiles to patients' faces and offering a welcome distraction from the challenges they may be facing. The unconditional love and joy these dogs provide can be a powerful form of healing. 🌼
🌐 Global Impact: Therapy dogs can be found around the world, making a positive impact on individuals of all ages and backgrounds. Their ability to connect with people on a deep, emotional level transcends cultural and linguistic barriers. 🌏💙
👥 Spread the Love: Let's celebrate the incredible work of therapy dogs and the dedicated handlers who make a difference in countless lives 🌈
