Hello East + North Bay Friends!

We know how busy weekdays can get and making time for therapy isn’t always easy. That’s why we’re excited to share that The Connective is now open on Saturdays! 🙌

Saturday sessions are limited and will fill quickly, so if you’ve been waiting for the right time to start (or continue) therapy, now's the time.

We’re SO grateful to be part of the Benicia community and look forward to seeing you - now on Saturdays too 😊
