Dance to Heal

So proud of my supervisees at ! These wonderful humans spent a year providing peer mentorship to fellow Chinese international students around the globe. Some of them are pursuing continuing education to become mental health professionals! Witnessing their work reminds me of why I became a therapist. It’s been an honor to be your supervisor! Best of luck to your future!

What a great way to start the week! Thank you to everybody who attended the BE A PRO AT SAYING NO workshop. I’m so proud of everyone and so excited to see the shift in our communities as we focus more on consent and safety practices. Can’t wait to share space with you again!
