From the Lobby was started by Anne Tyler, Founder of In Session and Therapist, and Ann Marie Elaban, a freelance photo and prop stylist off of the simple question: what if the unused lobby could become something meaningful? They celebrate community, little treats, and affordable therapy, and that's why every item is under $50 and 5% of all sales go towards In Session's Affordable Therapy Fund.
From the Lobby isn't just the lobby of In Session Therapy Studio; it's a place of connection, inclusion, and a safe space for all.
