About Emily Hwu

I took the next stepping stone from small-business building to counseling because I\'m passionate about the life force and healing that comes from true presence, and believe in the positive ripple effects that accessible mental health care has on our world. I have several years of experience working with adolescents, couples, and adult individuals in private practice, community mental health, and community-based settings. I\'m currently seeking mental health advocacy roles that blend my clinical and program management experiences
