2021 - Thank you!

17/12/2021

0 Comments

 
This year, without a doubt, has been one of the hardest yet. The weight of grief, sadness, worry and overwhelm, has been heavy for many. However, this year has also inspired kindness, insight, and tremendous courage.

Throughout 2021, I’ve had the profound privilege of working with some of the bravest young people and families I’ve ever met.

So to the young people and families whom I have spent time with this year:

Thank you.

Your ability to work through hard things is a testament to your strength, and your tenacity. I have been inspired by your honesty, your willingness to try new things, and your desire to change the status quo. You’ve worked hard to find calm in amongst the chaos. So thank you for allowing me to share in a small part of your therapeutic journey this year.

I hope the holidays bring much needed rest and relaxation. I look forward to seeing many of you again, both at the clinic and at the farm, in 2022 (our office will be closed from today, December 17th 2021 until January 24th 2022).

Until then, take care and Merry Christmas!
