Last but by no means least, I am trained as a CAMS-care clinician (one of only 300 mental health professionals trained in the State of MA).

Remember, 'You have the Freedom to be Happy' so like Steve Jobs said "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition."
