Please know that these posts are meant to be taken lightly. I would never suggest that following a social media post can instantly make mental health struggles better. These micro-tips are meant to offer support for the typical stressors we all experience just being humans.

I've been working in the mental health field in the Charleston area for over 20 years and will try my best to find you a good match.
