    • About Me

      I'm 28 y/o single mother of a beautiful daughter. I am finally going back to school after 10 years, ahhhh! I'm excited and nervous and just ready to get it all over with. I love my family who have been there for me through it all as well as the few friends who have stuck with me. I couldn't have done it without them.

      Psychotherapy Not Working
