Splash Biography

I entered high school as a relatively normal teen: alternating wildly between an inflated ego and zero self-esteem, bottling up my emotions until they exploded, and being mad at my mom for reasons both very valid and incredibly petty. 4 years and a lot of therapy later, I've come out the other side as a mostly-functional adult with an endless list of things I wish I'd done differently in high school. I'm going to be honest: I can’t magically solve any of your problems, won't fix any of the relationships in your lives, and can't change any of the circumstances in your life. What I hope this class will do is help you by teaching you some of the skills and lessons that would've made me happier, more emotionally aware, and secure in my own skin. While I have a list of certain topics that I am especially acquainted with and could easily talk about (to name a few: attention/focus difficulties and ADHD, emotion processing and suppression, anxiety and social anxiety, body image issues and self-judgment, supporting friends through validating listening and setting boundaries), I’d love to hear from you and maybe answer some of your questions in future classes.
