As a teenager, I struggled with anxiety and I want to make a difference in the lives of others with the same experience. Ever since I can remember, people have turned to me for advice and comfort. In particular, I’ve always felt that adolescents and young adults who are struggling are often invalidated. I want to change that.

My Personal Mental Wellness Beliefs
I believe that physical and emotional health are closely connected — so striving for mental wellness is a mind, body, and spiritual process. Attending to one’s emotional health is just as important as seeing a medical doctor.
