Personal experiences play an important role in shaping who we are. It reflects our core identity and emotional landscape. We are on a journey to discover and fulfill our life's purpose, and to understand the roles that others contribute along the way.

Expressing ourselves, finding balance while engaging with others can be challenging. Outward expression, regulation, and interaction. The goal is to find catharsis while processing. It’s not always easy.

Drawing on their personal experiences and professional skills, they dedicate themselves to providing person-centered approaches in all interactions while working to dismantle systemic barriers and walkalong side others in their journey.
