My practitioner’s human-first approach has helped me regain confidence in advocating for myself and my own health. She has listened and responded with understanding, with advice and suggestions I know comes from kindness for my well-being. As someone that feels well protected in her care, I hope those making decisions in Thriveworks policy and regulations does everything they can to support and advocate for her overall wellbeing as well.
