Hello

I’m currently a junior at Balboa High School in the San Francisco Bay Area. I’m interested in the fundamentals of psychology and how it impacts people in my community. I’m passionate towards learning more about that subject and  also mental health, especially for high school students because I believe that mental health plays an important role to your wellbeing just the same as your physical health does. 

In fact, I want to be able to advocate the importance of mental health and reduce the stigma around the topic especially for high schoolers. As a high schooler myself, I have experienced the stress and anxiety of school assignments and worrying about getting a good grade on tests.  As I grew up, I gradually gained exposure  to how mental health impacted the people around me. Through my personal experience, I hope to support others in my community and those who are struggling to find their own methods of improving their wellbeing. To me mental health isn’t just something someone should go through alone. Everyone has different risk factors that could contribute to their health. Whether it’s depression, anxiety or just feeling overwhelmed and stressed, you shouldn’t have to go through the process of improving alone.

With this website I hope to have people’s concerns heard and understood, as well as getting the assistance they might need with progress on their own journey or someone close to them that needs the support.
