“During the pandemic we started experiencing challenges with our daughter with homeschooling , stress, feeling bored and isolated. My husband and I noticed how our daughters mental health and behaviors had changed drastically. I felt terrible seeing my daughters mental health being impacted and started feeling hopeless. We started looking for a therapist and thankfully a friend of mine recommended Dr. Hersha.”
