Wellness Plan & Self Care

     As a counseling intern, I recognize that my ability to support clients depends on my own wellness. By integrating physical, emotional, spiritual, and professional self-care practices, I cultivate resilience and authenticity. My wellness plan reflects my dispositional strengths such as empathy, flexibility and cultural humility to ensure that I can sustain a counselor identity.

Some of my favorites:
  • Hot yoga
  • Weightlifting
  • Rock Climbing
  • Line Dancing
  • Spa Days
