Practice Update
Due to schedule changes, I am currently not accepting new clients.
This allows me to continue providing consistent, high-quality care to my current clients while ensuring I can continue showing up fully for the therapeutic work we do together.
Thank you for your understanding and interest in Cherish Mental Health Counseling. I look forward to welcoming new clients when I am able to open availability again.
