This Thanksgiving PCC wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude. Thank you to caregivers for trusting us to help your children grow and heal. We admire your and your child's willingness to show up, be vulnerable, and do the hard work. We recognize that therapy can be challenging for both caregivers and children and it is a privilege to work with all of you. Happy Thanksgiving.
