Gisel Martinez (she/her/hers/ella) graduated from the Chicago School of Professional Psychology with a concentration of Latinx Mental Health. She helps others navigate the complications of life by providing a warm and welcoming space for folks to express themselves authentically, co-creates helpful strategies on how to balance multiple life responsibilities (including connections to resources that folks might need), and highlights the strength and wisdoms folks already have within themselves and within their communities.
