    I’m allowed to set my own hours, so if it was telehealth I could theoretically do late night or morning appointments if I want to. I just haven’t really thought about that. When I eventually have my own practice. I really do want to have weekend hours and evening hours, before I worked with a lot of parents and that was one of the biggest issues was when do you have time for therapy when you’re chasing a toddler. Or like I remember when I would have friends who worked as bartenders, they wished that they could do therapy after they got off work but sometimes that would be two or three in the morning.

      Yep, I feel sympathy for people who work evening/night/swing shifts. I only did it sporadically but had no responsibilities at the time. Maintaining that for decades seems like it could be pretty difficult, especially for people with young families or who enjoy being active in their communities.
