✨ Exciting update! ✨ Our group room and therapy waiting room just got a beautiful refresh thanks to a generous partial donation from Rooms To Go. 🛋️💙
Creating safe, welcoming spaces is so important for the healing journey. These new pieces will help our clients feel more comfortable and supported during some of life’s most difficult moments.
We’ll be sharing before & after photos soon 👀, but for now we couldn’t wait to celebrate with a peek of our team in front of the delivery truck! 🚚💜
