Lauren Taus is a licensed psychotherapist, practicing Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP), and trained to...

HTW with Zoe and Erica
The one where Zoe still thinks it's 2020. It may as well be, no? It’s the end of the year, and while plenty of people are thinking about goals for next year, we’re more about reflection than resolution.
