[close] Join us for meetings where we decide on self-help books to read and go through agreed upon pages/chapters for each meeting. During these meetings, we will have the opportunity to explore how these books pertain to our lives, the lessons we've learned from them and discuss the significance of what these books can mean to us. Whether you are a self-help book reader, someone wanting to learn more about mental health or just someone looking for a community with support, everyone is welcome. Through this group, the hope is for everyone to feel supported, understood and to learn more when it comes to our mental health and wellness If you are interested in joining this book club or want more information on it, please reach out via text or call (631)600-0188 or email KHarrisonTherapy@outlook.com
