“My Philosophy on Mental Health & Wellness”

Seeing first-hand the trauma of war and loss on friends drove me to understand how better to communicate and empathize with those who are grieving.

Often, we don’t need answers or solutions past knowing someone understands and feels for us. The truth is, everybody has someone who feels for them -sometimes we just need a little help to realize it.

I strive every day to better understand what those in need, need - and how I can help to bring those solutions to them.
