Alyssa’s Therapy Bootcamp (Pt.1)
Hello, My name is Alyssa and I am in therapy. Shocking, I know. I have absolutely nothing wrong with me. I don’t know what I’m even doing. Kidding. I needed this more than anyone quite frankly. While the topic of therapy is still taboo…I kind of understand why. No one wants to talk about the…
