Hello everyone!

Summer sure has flown by. Over the summer we have been very busy here at the office and out in the community.

Between the therapy dogs and life. Fall is quickly approaching and schools starting back up.

Currently we have clinicians who have same week openings. Our staff area will be updated soon. Until then we will post the pictures and bios here.

Please welcome Chloe!

🌞🐾 Welcome back Sunny 🐾🌞

Today is Sunny’s first day back in the office after training, and she is already settling right into her very important role here at Birch & Pine ✨

You’ll find her mastering her place command, offering quiet support, and providing top-tier comfort (from her slightly boujie bed, of course 😉).

Sunny is continuing to grow into her role as a therapy dog, and we’re so excited to have her back alongside our team and clients 💛

Be sure to say hi when you see her in the office—she’s ready to work… and accept all the love 🐾
