Tell me about Affiliates in Counseling.
Jason Price (00:00)
We've been a practice that's been around for 19 years now. Mostly in Northbrook, we have a satellite office in Chicago. We have 55 therapists. We started with five of us. The hardest thing for me as a therapist is when I don't have space to take on clients. I hate saying no to people. And so having people that I can refer them to, that I really trust and know that take care of people the way I would want to really matters to me. We do everything, young kids to older adults, individuals, couples, families, some addiction stuff. We have a perinatal program now. We provide everybody with a supervisor who's more experienced. We do weekly consultation groups that everybody's in no matter how long they've been practicing. And I think a feedback that's at a deeper level than most people get in graduate school programs during their first couple of jobs out of school.
