I wrote my first reported essay about trying out online therapy back in 2015, an idea that was all mine. I rose through the ranks at Time Out New York -from Things to Do Editor to Editor of the whole kit and caboodle a couple of years later-for a reason: I was ambitious, often asked for more responsibilities, and wasn’t afraid to try out new formats or cover off-the-wall events.
