Supervisor Spotlight: Kathryn Willis
What’s one way to approach each day with a positive mindset? Counselors and patients address this in every session. It’s not always easy to focus on the fun stuff and forget about life’s challenges. Ups and downs come and go, but whatever makes you happy is what you should dwell on and work toward.
