“As a society we are coming to terms with the reality that addressing mental health issues openly and honestly, without stigma, is crucial.  Right now we are in a mental health crisis.  We are facing life changing cultural issues and biological threats to our very survival as a species.  Now more than ever, access to mental health services must be a priority,” shares Baruch Zeichner, Licensed Counselor, Talk with the Counselor.
