Jonna McCutcheon

Therapist

Virtual • Arkansas


Welcome! Fourteen years in, this still moves me. ❤️ Let's see if any of this sounds familiar: You check the locks again on your way to bed. You reread the text nine times, send it, then apologize for sending it. You sit in the car in the driveway a minute longer than you need to. You are steady in the hospital hallway and you come apart in the cereal aisle. Your kid gets called defiant by adults who have never seen him tired. You know which friends stopped calling first. You have carried this well, and you have carried it alone, and both of those cost you something. This is for you. Children, teenagers, adults, people starting over at sixty-eight.
