Media & Articles
There is an overwhelming amount of mental health and wellness information circulating online, much of it oversimplified, misleading, or not grounded in research. As a licensed clinical psychologist, I believe people deserve access to accurate, evidence-based information about mental health, delivered in a way that feels human, relatable, and usable in real life.
Through podcasts, articles, and educational content on platforms like TikTok, I aim to translate psychological science into practical insight, helping people better understand their nervous systems, emotions, relationships, and patterns, without fear-based messaging or quick-fix promises. My goal is not to replace therapy, but to increase mental health literacy, reduce stigma, and offer thoughtful guidance that supports self-awareness and informed care.
I regularly share insights on mental health, resilience, and psychology in practice. Below you’ll find a selection of my published articles and media features.
