At present, I am working at being able to balance work and life, since I'm still working entirely via virtual services. And while that has meant more time to dedicate to clients, I have had to stop accepting new clients at present to focus on my current caseload, which is quite full, so that I … Continue reading Balancing Acts

I will be spending a good deal of January attending continuing education and professional development classes to better assist current and future clients. In addition, I plan to enjoy … Continue reading No New Clients Until February 2019
