If Moonstone is Full: Referrals for Trusted Clinicians in Laramie, WY
At Moonstone Wellness, we are honored to support our community’s mental health needs. However, there are times when our clinic is at capacity, we have a waiting list, or we may not be the best fit for a particular client’s needs. I want to provide you with a list of clinicians I have personally worked with, supervised, or formed a friendship with here in the Albany County community. These are all professionals I have experience with and would confidently recommend to those I care about. If Moonstone is unable to meet your needs, I hope that one of these many qualified caregivers can.
