Webinar: COVID Showers Bring May Flowers
As counselors, therapists, and other medical professionals, we often have a duty to our patients that goes above and beyond the relationship that many other professions have with their clients – because we care and they need us.
But sometimes, especially now, that dedication can be too much.
