Trestlewood Counseling Group and our providers were in there with you like the rest of the country. We grew, stretched, took things week by week, and had to become flexible with technology and learning new things \u201con the fly.\u201d We were so grateful for each and every one of you as you shared your patience with our transitions to virtual\/telehealth and working from home, especially as you were going through your own transitions. What a wild ride!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to the current pandemic we had to sit and ask ourselves many questions about the future of TCG and each of us\u00a0individually. When exploring the future we had to dive deep into the concerns for the health and safety of ourselves, our families and clients. We have had to make personal choices moving forward as clinicians and about how we provide services in the future. Throughout all of the unknowns over the last year, it was important for all to discover ways to flex and do what was best for them. While it does not go without some heaviness, we are happy to announce that we have made choices that will bring about a hopeful view of the next steps in finding the \u201cnew normal\u201d and provide on-going support to clients in the future. Heather Lettow and Erin Arwady will continue to provide services both at our TCG office and virtually,\u00a0while\u00a0Alessandra Pye has made the decision to remain virtual. Alessandra will not be providing counseling at Trestlewood Counseling Group, however, she is an integral part of its formation and growth as we built our practice side-by-side-by-side.\u00a0\u00a0We are so happy for her that she is taking on her next journey and we will continue to refer and collaborate with her in the years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trestlewood Counseling Group remains intact and will continue to provide counseling services in the years ahead. The pandemic provided some gifts throughout that helped us grow as providers and explore what we each wanted for the future of our practice. We are all so grateful to continue this work with you and can\u2019t wait to sit with you again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2020 and 2021 have been full of transitions, the need for and deeper practice of patience, the increased need for self-care, stretching ourselves outside of our comfort zones and resiliency; many practices we teach and support within the walls of our offices.
