A friendly message from Dr. Juggins: 

     Treat therapy as self-care and a resource for growth and healing. There is no right or wrong approach to healing. Fun fact about me: I do not like using the word "disorder."  Not everything is a mental illness! If you were ever diagnosed with a "disorder", remember, you are not your "disorder." Overall, I deeply care about your well-being and look forward to accompanying you on your healing journey.
