I must have been 14 when my mother introduced me to her long lost love of psychology. Ever since then, I was certain of my major. More often than not, being a good listener is not only about sitting in silence but knowing when and how to break it. It has always been important for me to help people feel heard loud and clear. I found interest in counselling with a desperate need to find compassion for others in different ways than we are taught. Learning about the art of caring gives my life a strong sense of meaning and purpose.
