When I was in high school, I struggled with my sexuality. The struggle lead to maladaptive coping skills, depression and anxiety. I felt so alone, scared, and like no one understood what I was going through! I needed help but I was too afraid to ask for it! One day, a school counselor, who I've never interacted with before, noticed that something was wrong with me and she reached out, gave me a helping hand, and put me into group therapy with other teens like me! I wasn't alone any more, I wasn't the only one questioning my sexuality, there were other kids like me! Getting help was the first step towards acceptance and self-love!
From my own personal experience of exploring and understanding my own identity (sexuality, gender, ethnicity and more), to my education/experience around working with LGBTQ+ and BIPOC individuals and the dedication I have to educating others on LGBTQ+ issues, mental health and more, I can support you!
If you're wanting help and support around exploring your own identity, navigating life stressors/transitions, processing trauma, managing your depression/anxiety or dealing with disordered eating, please reach out, I'm here to help! You don't have to do this alone! I'll be here to cheer you on and guide you through this process and help you reach your goals!
