Hi!
I hope your spring is off to a wonderful start! Spring is one of my favorite seasons- I love the feeling of freshness that it brings in all areas of life.
This month’s newsletter offers a collection of articles on everything from personal wellness and relationships to anger management and overcoming excessive emotional sensitivity… there should be something for everyone in this issue:)
If you were hoping to do some “spring cleaning” in your life this season, I’m spotlighting a therapist who has worked at my practice for 10 years— Amanda Pelcher, LMFT. Amanda is goal-oriented, energetic, and excellent at helping people who seek encouragement, accountability, and structure. Amanda offers therapy visits for those located in New York State, and coaching for eligible clients outside of New York. To learn more, just hit “reply” on this and I’ll connect you with my reception team.
Wishing you a wonderful Spring season… feel free to share what new growth you’re hoping the season will bring for you!
Sincerely,
Dr. Chloe Carmichael PhD
Licensed Clinical Psychologist
