We’re continuing on our series where each therapist on the team shares about their niche and why they’ve chosen to specialize in specific areas of therapy.

This week Sky Yeater shares about her journey to working with couples, understanding a variety of relationship styles and configurations, and her love of working through an attachment based lens.

Check out her post to learn how something as simple as making your bed can become a huge part of your self-care routine.
