I don’t have a prepared speech or eloquent post regarding the results of the 2024 election. I can only say that as a therapist who has now worked through three tRump elections, that I was still unprepared for this sadness. I was unprepared for this overwhelming sense of dread. But I am here with all of you in this. This is not a post trying to pander to gaining business and social media attention to the OBT brand - but simply a message that I am with you. I hear you. I will still fight with you. I don’t have much to offer but a sincere and literal shoulder to cry on and with and the dogs will be in the office this week to offer cuddles and support. We can still stand together. We can still fight. We can still love those that will see us authentically for who we are and love us back.
Please take care of yourself today.
