Bio

Hi! My name is Tyara Dabrio and I am a first-generation American and university student. I am passionate about mental health, art, research, advocacy, and poetry. I want to become a therapist for women, women of color, immigrants, children of immigrants, and anyone who feels overwhelmed by their intersectionality. I want to give quality help to people who are disadvantaged because of their socioeconomic background, race, and/or sexuality. In the future, I also hope to get a Ph.D. in social psychology.
