My Story
My journey to wanting to be a therapist started when I was a freshman in college. I always knew I wanted to work with children in some regard, so I picked education. I was majoring in early childhood development. Well, attending school, I started going to therapy from past traumas in my life. It was through that I found my true passion. I saw an enormous amount of growth within myself and I knew this was the way I wanted to help children. So I changed my major to applied psychology and I couldn’t be more passionate about a career path.
