Podcasts about Human communication

On episode 233, we welcome Constantine Sandis to discuss the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein, his lifelong preoccupation with the question of understanding others, the social and clinical consequences of misunderstanding others, Wittgenstein's personal struggles with misunderstanding, criticisms of empathy and how it may lead to further conflict as opposed to resolving it, the problem of mind-reading, understanding culture as opposed to another's inner drives, and the significance of self-reflection. Constantine Sandis is Director of Lex Academic, Visiting Professor of Philosophy at the University of Hertfordshire, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts. His books include The Things We Do and Why We Do Them, Philosophy of Action: An Anthology, and Human Nature, and From Action to Ethics: A Pluralistic Approach to Reasons and Responsibility.

The unpredictability of AI's trajectory is part of what makes it so exciting.Human Adaptation to Technology: The conversation highlights how the layering of technological abstractions over time has allowed more people to interact with complex systems without needing deep technical knowledge. This trend is accelerating with AI, making once-daunting tasks more accessible even to non-technical individuals.The Role of Creativity in the AI Era: Diego discusses how creativity, unpredictability, and humor remain uniquely human strengths that current AI struggles to replicate. These qualities could play a significant role in maintaining human relevance in an AI-enabled world.The Evolving Nature of Coding: AI is changing how developers work, reducing the need for intricate coding knowledge while enabling a focus on solving more human-centric problems. While some coding skills may atrophy, understanding fundamental principles remains essential for adapting to new tools.Argentina's Unique Position: The discussion explores Argentina's potential to emerge as a significant player in AI due to its history of technological creativity, economic unpredictability, and resourcefulness. The parallels with its early adoption of crypto demonstrate a readiness to engage with transformative technologies.AI and Human Relationships: An AI-enabled economy might allow humans to focus more on meaningful, human-centric work and relationships as machines take over repetitive and mechanical tasks. This could redefine the value humans derive from work and their interactions with technology.Risks and Opportunities with AI Agents: The development of autonomous AI agents raises significant security and ethical concerns, such as ensuring they act responsibly and are not exploited by malicious actors. At the same time, these agents promise unprecedented levels of efficiency and autonomy in managing real-world tasks.

Athena is a group consciousness channeled by Robin Jelinek. Robin delivers the download of information she receives to the person asking. If that is you, expect to be met with the energy needed help solve your problem. It might not be your typical “spiritual” message or delivery, but you will feel the truth in it. This group is able to speak to your higher consciousness — the guidance system inside of you — if you agree to it. Essentially, you are able to receive messages from yourself that are delivered by the group. Just like them, you are part of all consciousness (people here call it “the universe”) and this is where the information comes from. For over 40 years, Robin has been pursuing a greater meaning in life. She studied metaphysics and spirituality in great depth trying to find something, especially after her kids had grown up and moved out of the house. About 20 years ago she experienced a Kundalini awakening that is a very rare, almost out of body experience. It's an experience that people have supposedly spent entire lifetimes to achieve. It was about this time that the group came knocking at Robin's door, but it took another 20 years for her to realize it. Robin was first a wife, then a mother, and now she's a channeler. ___________________ PODCAST CHAPTERS 00:00 - Robin Jelinek / Athena in Truth Intro 02:57 - Journey of Growth and Spiritual Shifts 06:37 - Balancing Spiritual Thirst with Groundedness 08:35 - Merging with the Divine 11:01 - Manifestation and the Role of Chakras 15:54 - The Role of Teachers and Guides 22:12 - Connection with Divine Feminine Archetypes 25:44 - Merging Wisdom and Intellect 27:45 - War, Protest, and the Human Experience 29:03 - The Nature of Earth's Contrasting Plane 29:40 - Human as an Experiential Tool 31:52 - The Importance of Authenticity 34:16 - Taking Inspired Action 37:18 - Divine Principles and Laws of the Universe 39:56 - Emotions Across Realms 40:49 - Best Questions to Ask the Universe 43:53 - The Fate of Experiences After Death 45:46 - Kundalini Energy and Its Effects 53:51 - Athena's Connection to Robin 54:45 - Accelerating Consciousness 59:58 - The Future of Human Communication 01:01:52 - Channeling and Family Dynamics 01:05:08 - Kundalini and the Path to Opening Energy Centers 01:08:09 - Using Family as Mirrors for Growth 01:08:48 - Freedom Through Spiritual Connection 01:12:45 - Embracing Human Connections 01:15:43 - Congruence and Spiritual Choices 01:19:10 - Closing Thoughts on Authenticity and Free Will 01:20:37 - The Final Trio Questions ___________________ Guest: Robin Jelinek | Channel of Athena in Truth Website | https://www.athenaintruth.com/ Work with Robin | https://www.athenaintruth.com/book Live Q/A Membership | https://www.athenaintruth.com/membership Online Courses | https://www.athenaintruth.com/courses YouTube | ​⁠​​⁠ @athenaintruth  Host: Emilio Ortiz Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/iamemilioortiz/ Subscribe to YouTube Channel | ​⁠​⁠ @EmilioOrtiz  Watch Emilio's latest series on 4biddenknowledge TV l https://bit.ly/AwakenThe6thSense ___________________ Special Offerings to Support the Show: ✦ Make a One-Time or Recurring Donation on PayPal

This week, we're speaking with Dr. Kirsten Davis of Stetson University College of Law. Dr. Davis began her legal career practicing in the areas of litigation, employment, and taxation. After a few years, she decided to pursue education, becoming a professor at the Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, where she focused on legal writing. It was during this time that Dr. Davis started her PhD in Human Communication. Today, at Stetson University College of Law, Dr. Davis is a professor of law, Faculty Director of Online Legal Education Strategies, and Provost's Faculty Fellow for Generative Artificial Intelligence and Higher Education. Her research and scholarship focus on legal communication, law and rhetoric, professionalism, professional identity, and professional ethics, and she is currently working on issues at the intersection of generative AI, legal education, and legal practice. Additionally, she is a consultant, trainer, writer, and blogger on various topics in the legal profession. We had a lively conversation about her experience becoming a law professor, how she has adapted to generational changes among her law students, why we may have a "process renaissance" in legal education, and her thoughts on how generative AI will affect legal education in the near future.

Chimpanzees are humans' closest living relatives. But does much of their communication resembles ours? According to a new study published earlier this week in the journal Current Biology, chimpanzees gesture back-and-forth in a similar way to how humans take turns speaking. The research presents an intriguing possibility that this style of communication may have evolved before humans split off from great apes, and tells researchers more about how turn-taking evolved.

We did our best to keep Jeremy focused and on-message during this interview as we explored and tried to identify the fundamental problems with human communication, commerce, and access to information in the hypertext age.

We had a pretty memorable experience that happened during our recent calving season (we were several brandings deep into the season of spring work at the time of this recording). During this particular branding, some of the panels opened up, and quite a few remaining calves (along with a couple of cows) got loose, running out into the pasture. I made some observations that seemed to work really well for the cattle (and the people who were able to get the cattle back to the pen) during this time, so I wanted to discuss how they relate to human interactions as well.All of these ‘lessons' carry over to our interactions with other humans in our day to day lives. None of us are going to make good decisions, or even function well, if we're in a state of distress and chaos. It's vital that we give ourselves and those around us the space we need, and be crystal clear on where we're heading. We can't expect our loved ones, co-workers, etc., to be mind readers, and always know what we're planning for next. Human communication affects so many parts of our lives; it's a super important skill that we must continue building!In this episode, we cover:Remaining calm and not getting super stressed during high-stress interactionsGiving others plenty of space (without added pressure) to make good decisionsHaving clarity on where you're headed + setting and providing clear expectations for others so they know as wellResources & Links:Join the waitlist for the Good Movement CollectiveGood Movement music by: Aaron EspePodcast produced by: Jill Carr PodcastingConnect with Terryn:Follow on Instagram @terryn.drielingCheck out my websiteSend me an email at terryn@terryndrieling.comMake sure to hit subscribe/follow so you never miss an episode!Find the complete show notes here: https://terryndrieling.com/what-i-learned-about-human-communication-from-the-cows-that-got-out-episode-35

For this first anniversary of the publication of my book, The Essential Guide to Trauma-Sensitive Yoga: How to Create Safer Spaces for All, I'm releasing the Outside the Studio episode I was featured on with Tessa Tovar. We discuss suggested language for shifting power in group settings, how to create after environments, how to practice to reach yoga in a way that includes all, as well as other topics. The Essential Guide to Trauma-Sensitive Yoga has received outstanding reviews and remains an important resource for yoga teachers and practitioners as well as an intro for the yoga curious. "I was so excited to receive this book in the mail. I am an amateur yogi and an aspiring school counselor who believes that trauma-informed ANYTHING is important. I especially love that photos were added to this book for added clarification. I am excited to use this book as a guide for myself and looking forward to eventually sharing this knowledge with others! This book is essential for any instructor who wants to be trauma-informed and very helpful to anyone who practices yoga or wants to start but doesn't know how. I would give this book more stars if I could!" - Melissa Smith “The Essential Guide for Trauma Sensitive Yoga is a comprehensive resource for teachers to understand the complex nuances of trauma and the subtle and overt ways it can present itself in our students. As teachers, we have a responsibility to serve the whole person and that includes sensitizing ourselves to the various ways that trauma lives uniquely in each body, how it influences the mind and perceptions and can affect one's health and emotional wellness. Lara Land deftly provides the necessary guidance, insights, and best practices so that facilitators can support their students on their journey toward healing with more mindfulness, awareness, and skill. This excellent resource should be required reading in any teacher training course.”—Seane Corn, Yoga Teacher, author of Revolution of the Soul ----------------- Tessa received her degree in Human Communication with honors at the University of Southern Oregon in Ashland.

Research shows loneliness costs the Australian economy $2.7 billion per year or $1565 per person.The World Health Organisation has also declared loneliness to be a global health concern. And it's estimated loneliness has an equivalent health impact on the body to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.Before the pandemic older Australians were found to be the loneliest in the nation. But now the data now shows this has shifted and younger Australians are the feeling the effects of being alone and isolated.Technology has allowed us to be more connected than before, but has all this left us lonelier than ever?Guests:Andrew Dempster, Principal Director & Leader of the National Mental Health Advisory Business, KPMGRoger Wilkins, Professorial Fellow at Melbourne Institute of Applied Economic and Social Research, and Co-Director of the HILDA SurveyLiesel Sharabi, from the Hugh Downs School of Human Communication at Arizona State University.Lixia Qu, Senior Research Fellow at the Australian Institute of Family Studies.

On today's 175th Episode of The Thriller Zone, now in our 6th Season, we're happy to invite Don Winslow into our home for a face-to-face interview that, as you'll quickly notice, is truly a one of a kind opportunity for this host, and for you as an audience member.Don, as you may know, is a renowned thriller writer who has decades of experience as a seasoned writer, creating one hit after another. Today, Don discusses his journey as an author and the challenges he faced in the publishing industry. Despite initial rejections and being labeled a cult writer, Winslow persevered and eventually achieved success. He credits his partnership with agent Shane Salerno as a turning point in his career. Together, they started a rebellion against the limitations imposed by publishers and Hollywood. In our in-depth conversation, Winslow reflects on the impact of his mother, a librarian, who instilled in him a love for books and the belief that he could achieve anything. He also shares his thoughts on retirement and the future of the publishing industry. Digging deeper and opening up, Don reveals the evolution of storytelling and the impact of technology and AI on the industry. He emphasizes the authenticity of human communication and the importance of bringing heart and soul to writing. As our show begins to wrap, Don allows us an inside peek, as he shares advice for aspiring writers, encouraging them to never give up and set doable writing goals. He reflects on the emotional impact of his City Trilogy, which includes City On Fire, City Of Dreams and City In Ruins, as well as the upcoming film adaptation, and concludes by discussing his future plans, including his commitment to fighting against neo-fascism and—on a much lighter note—spending more time with his wife, Jean.All in all, this will stand out as one of the very finest episodes of The Thriller Zone since I launched the podcast nearly three years ago.

Lucinda is joined by Stella Collins, co-founder and chief learning officer of Stella Labs. They discuss the intersection of neuroscience and AI in the field of learning and development. Stella shares insights on how understanding how the brain learns can improve the effectiveness of learning initiatives. She emphasises the importance of motivation, practice, reflection, and spaced repetition in the learning process. Stella also highlights the role of AI in creating personalised learning journeys, providing support and feedback, and tracking progress KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding how learning works is crucial for both learners and learning professionals. It involves recognsing the need for learning, staying motivated throughout the learning process, receiving guidance and support, practicing and experimenting with new knowledge or skills, and applying them in real-world situations. Neuroscience provides insights into how the brain learns and changes. It highlights the neuroplasticity of the brain, its energy requirements, and the importance of sleep in consolidating learning. AI can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of learning. It can help create content, suggest behaviours, personalise learning journeys, provide automated feedback and support, track progress, and generate relevant activities for learners. Gamification can be a useful tool in learning, but it should be optional and tailored to individual preferences. It can enhance motivation and engagement, but it is not necessary for effective learning. BEST MOMENTS "AI can help you be highly efficient at producing rubbish. So you do need to think about what's the effectiveness we're looking at, what are we actually trying to achieve?" "If you're a line manager who perhaps hasn't had a coaching skill or hasn't been trained on coaching, if you're given a checklist, all those stuff, here's some good questions to ask." "Learning just isn't magic. You can't onboard people faster than their brains can actually process stuff." "Good learning doesn't need gamification. Good gamification can sometimes help with learning."

Takeaways Online dating has evolved from being stigmatized to becoming the most common way to meet a romantic partner. Realistic expectations and taking the time to get to know different types of people are important in online dating. Gender dynamics play a role in online dating experiences, with men often facing challenges in getting responses and women experiencing harassment. Success in online dating often requires endurance and the ability to overcome negative experiences. Alternative online dating experiences, such as virtual reality, are being explored but are still in the early stages. Virtual reality dating offers the opportunity to have a trial run of a date before meeting someone in person. Online dating can feel risky due to meeting strangers, but safety precautions can be taken to mitigate potential dangers. Online communication can make people more comfortable and vulnerable in revealing themselves. The future of online dating may involve the integration of video and finding ways to address the problems and frustrations users experience. Balancing online and in-person dating can provide more opportunities to meet potential partners.

One of the many things that makes learning on YouTube so special is how much users love to do it! Every day, people around the world choose to spend time on the platform learning to improve their lives. And we want to empower learners even further by providing a direct path to formal education.We're thrilled to share that we've partnered with Arizona State University (ASU) and Crash Course to create Study Hall. It's a new approach that demystifies the college process while creating an affordable and accessible onramp to earning college credit. A postsecondary education drives economic and social mobility in powerful ways, yet the path to higher education can be riddled with barriers, including high cost and accessibility. We're hoping to change that with Study Hall.There are four “College Foundations” courses which offer eligibility for transfer credit. This suite encompasses the most common first-year college courses at many higher-education institutions: English Composition, College Math, US History and Human Communication.

In 2016, MDC was acquired by Time Inc. In 2009, with the cash flow MDC was yielding, Alovis was able to purchase LensDirect.com, a struggling online retailer of name-brand contact lenses that was previously owned by his family. Under his leadership, LensDirect.com has grown revenues over 13000%, and has evolved into a leading online retailer of vision care products. LensDirect.com has earned continuous placement in the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing companies in the United States, and has been selected as one of the top online retailers by Internet Retailer..In 2012, Alovis co-founded Go Answer, a 24/7 outsourced contact center solution. Originally an answering service, it has blossomed into an award-winning full-service contact center handling tele, web chat, and emails/ticketing for businesses of all shapes and sizes.In 2016, with the proceeds from the MDC sale, Alovis started Pulse Health (formerly known as InTouchMD), a healthcare technology company. Pulse Health's marquee product is the Pulse Engagement Cloud - a powerful cloud-based SaaS platform that helps pharmaceutical companies better reach, engage and understand physicians & patients on an individual level. Pulse Health's client list ranges from emerging biotech to global pharmaceutical companies. In 2016, Pulse Health was selected as the most innovative company in healthcare and in 2018, Pulse Engagement Cloud was selected as the most innovative product in healthcare. The companies have evolved into multi-industry leaders, landing placement in the coveted Inc. 5000, Internet Retailers Top 1000, Long Island Business News' 40 under 40 and a finalist in the New York Enterprise Small Business Awards. Alovis has been featured in top media outlets including Forbes, Reuters, CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, Fox Business, Inc. Magazine, Internet Retailer, and The New York Observer. Alovis' companies have been the subject of multiple success stories featured in American Express, Microsoft, Trustpilot, UPS, Twilio, and Visa. At the heart of Alovis is his passion for doing good, and has managed to bring that same entrepreneurial energy to his fundraising committee, The Silver Lining Society. This New York based non-profit, which Alovis co-founded in 2006, raises money for Hope & Heroes Pediatric Cancer Fund and has raised nearly a million dollars since inception.In This Conversation We Discuss: [00:00] Intro[00:59] What is LensDirect.com?[01:58] The early days of Ryan's Ecom journey[03:00] The “not sexy” businesses are the one that work[04:05] Was Ryan the first one to use subs online?[04:46] Competitors mean that there is a market[05:44] When LensDirect came into the picture[07:24] From mail order to Ecommerce[08:11] Why Ryan bought back LensDirect[10:45] How Go Answer came into the picture[12:05] Sponsor: Electric Eye electriceye.io/connect[13:02] Sponsor: JSON-LD For SEO jsonld.app[14:19] Sponsor: Retention.com retention.com/honest[15:11] The advantages of human communication[17:26] What's cooking on LensDirect and Go Answer[19:48] Another amazing brand from Ryan: Pulse Health[20:22] Where to find Ryan's brands?Resources:Subscribe to Honest Ecommerce on YoutubeYour one stop shop for all things optical lensdirect.comThe #1 24/7 full service answering service 1888goanswer.comThe industry leader in cloud-based engagement software and services for the life science industry pulsehealth.techConnect with Ryan linkedin.com/in/ryanalovisSchedule an intro call with one of our experts electriceye.io/connectGet your free structured data audit for your store jsonld.appBook your demo today and get 20% off the annual commitment fee retention.com/honestIf you're enjoying the show, we'd love it if you left Honest Ecommerce a review on Apple Podcasts.

We humans are social animals—and that takes work. As we move through the world, we have to navigate around other people's desires, needs, and beliefs. Much of this work happens in conversation—through our words, our glances, our gestures. It happens in countless different situations, according to different norms and systems. Human social interaction is, in short, a multi-layered, delicate dance. But it's also not the only kind of social interaction out there. Apes, dogs, and other social species also have to negotiate with others and sometimes with humans. There's not just one species of conversation, in other words—there are many.  My guest today is Dr. Federico Rossano, Associate Professor of Cognitive Science and Director of the Comparative Cognition Lab at the University of California, San Diego. Throughout his career, Federico has studied social interaction from a number of different angles, in a range of different settings, and across different species—including humans, bonobos, orangutans, and most recently dogs.   Here, we discuss the field of conversation analysis and how Federico got started in it. We talk about his early work on how people use gaze in conversation, and how the use of gaze differs across cultures. We discuss how Federico ported some of the tools of conversation analysis over to study social interaction in apes. We also talk about his new line of research on how dogs use soundboards to communicate with their human caretakers. This work has been attracting a lot of buzz and also a bit of pushback, so we dig into the controversy. Along the way, we touch on: Umberto Eco; platypuses; how much work it takes to simply come across as ordinary; the concept of the human interaction engine; the Clever Hans effect; the impossible task; and why many scientists are so skittish about animal language research. This episode is not just about different forms of conversation. It is itself a different form of conversation—at least for us. This was our first ever in-person interview, something we expect to do a bit more of going forward. Alright friends, on to my real-life, 3d, face-to-face chat with Dr. Federico Rossano. Enjoy!   A transcript of this episode will be available soon.   Notes and links  4:00 – The classic 1964 paper, ‘The Neglected Situation,' by Erving Goffman. 6:00 – An obituary for the novelist and semiotician, Umberto Eco, who died in 2016. His best-loved novel, perhaps, is The Name of the Rose. He's also the author of a book of essays called, Kant and the Platypus: Essays on Language and Cognition. 17:30 – The classic paper, ‘On doing “being ordinary”', by Harvey Sacks.   20:00 – A brief introduction to Conversation Analysis.  32:00 – Dr. Rossano's work on gaze is summarized in his 2012 chapter, ‘Gaze in Conversation.' His work on questions in Italian is here.  35:30 – The quote from Georg Simmel is as follows: “[T]he totality of social relations of human beings, their self-assertions and self-abnegation, their intimacies and estrangements, would be changed in unpredictable ways if there occurred no glance of eye to eye.”  39:50 – Dr. Rossano's work on gaze across cultures is described here.  43:00 – Dr. Rossano did his postdoctoral work with Michael Tomasello, who joined us for a previous episode.  47:00 – Dr. Rossano's work on bonobo interaction is here and here.  56:00 – Dr. Rossano's original work on food sharing in orangutans is here. A more recent paper on food sharing is here. 1:05:00 – The idea of the “human interaction engine” was first proposed by Stephen Levinson in 2006.  1:10:30 – See the recent theme issue on ‘Revisiting the human “interaction engine”'. Dr. Rossano's contributions to the issue are here and here. 1:18:00 – Dr. Rossano's work on dogs has been done in coordination with the company FluentPet. FluentPet makes the pet-friendly buttons (aka soundboards) made famous by Bunny, the “talking dog of TikTok.” 1:23:30 – For an insider's view of what happened in the original “animal language” studies, see a paper by Irene Pepperberg here.  1:27:30 – A recent review by Dr. Rossano and colleagues about the use of “augmented interspecies communication devices” like the soundboards he and colleagues are currently studying.  1:38:30 – The “impossible task,” a widely used task in comparative psychology, was first described in 2009. 1:44:45 – A recent podcast discussed the “animal language” debates in detail. Dr. Rossano was featured on the show.    1:57:30 – A paper in which Charles Goodwin discussed the case of his father, Chil, is here.   Dr. Rossano recommends:  Sequence Organization in Interaction, by Emanuel Schegloff Lectures on Conversation, by Harvey Sacks Roots of Human Sociality, edited by Stephen Levison and Nick Enfield Origins of Human Communication, by Michael Tomasello   Many Minds is a project of the Diverse Intelligences Summer Institute, which is made possible by a generous grant from the Templeton World Charity Foundation to UCLA.

Never Struggle With Sales Again: Identify, Attract and Close your Ideal Clients FREE MINI-COURSE

This week's episode was recorded at the Annual Meeting of the Arkansas Baptist State Convention. Andrea Lennon sits down with Dr. Tara Dew, who spoke at this year's Ministers' Wives Conference. Dew recalls her own salvation experience at a Billy Graham crusade, and the two also discuss the significance of biblical hope. Dr. Tara Dew is the wife of Dr. Jamie Dew, president of New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary & Leavell College (NOBTS). She is a mom to two sets of twins: Natalie & Nathan and Samuel & Samantha. After graduating from Meredith College with a Bachelor of Arts in Human Communication, Tara taught second grade for four years before becoming a stay-at-home mom. Since then, she has earned a Master of Arts in Teaching and Learning Elementary Education from Liberty University and a Doctorate in Education from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. She is currently homeschooling her four children and serving the students, staff, and faculty of NOBTS. As a pastor’s wife, Tara has been heavily involved in women’s and children’s ministries over the years. This led to her passion for training, equipping, and supporting ministers’ wives.

— “Life is a good teacher and a good friend. Things are always in transition, if we could only realize it. Nothing ever sums itself up in the way that we like to dream about. The off-center, in-between state is an ideal situation, a situation in which we don't get caught and we can open our hearts and minds beyond limit. — Life's work is to wake up, to let the things that enter into the circle wake you up rather than put you to sleep. The only way to do this is to open, be curious, and develop some sense of sympathy for everything that comes along, to get to know its nature and let it teach you what it will. It's going to stick around until you learn your lesson, at any rate. — Pema Chödrön. Valeria interviews Allie Vaknin  — she serves as a Registered Mental Health Counselor Intern in Orlando, Florida, working primarily with adolescents and adults who suffer from anxiety, depression, trauma, identity issues, and relationship difficulties. Allie graduated from Columbia University with a Master's in Mental Health Counseling, and prior to that, received degrees in Human Communication and Sociology with a minor in Leadership Studies from the University of Central Florida. A majority of her clinical experience has focused on serving individuals from marginalized and underserved communities across the country, including Miami, Orlando, [near] Los Angeles, and New York City. As the daughter of immigrants, a Colombian mother and Israeli father, her multicultural background and diverse clinical experiences have been an asset when working with issues of identity and complex trauma. Her approach focuses on helping clients develop self-understanding and learn practical skills. She believes education is a form of empowerment, so she frequently infuses opportunities for clients to learn about psychological concepts that can help them understand their own experience. She also incorporates mindfulness and self-compassion techniques, which help clients become more present and less harsh on themselves. Overall, her style of counseling can be described as supportive, empowering, insightful, collaborative, and oftentimes funny. She genuinely loves her job, and she's grateful for each opportunity to cross paths with, and support, a fellow human being.
