Happy New Year! I hope everyone is blessed in 2025!

I finally was able to add up my total session count for 2024. In years past, I was proud to have done over 1,500 sessions a year. I do enjoy helping people navigate the challenges that life can throw at us. This last year, I took on a lot for the fire department as well as helping Cheney pass a school bond.

I knew these commitments were negatively impacting the services I was able to provide, which was hard emotionally as well as financially. I was however successful in my service to Cheney students/famileis, as well as the community and fire department.

2025 should be a lot less chaotic 🤞 .

Total sessions for 2024: 1,323.

I feel this is exciting and concerning all at once…

Long wait times, minimal therapy, and wrong dosing are some of the bad experiences clients say they’ve had with Mindbloom, a ketamine company. It and other psychedelic tech startups are raising questions about the limits of telemedicine in this field.

Today we celebrate our armed forces and the past/present individuals that have fought for freedom and democracy. Take a moment to reflect on the liberties we have, and the millions of people that have committed years of their life to ensure that freedom is not lost.
