About

I am a committed and enthusiastic psychology student currently pursuing my degree, with a strong interest in clinical psychology. Beyond my academic studies, I have provided informal counselling support to peers in need of psychological help, strengthening my ability to listen actively, empathy, offer guidance, and apply psychological concepts in real-life situations. I am eager to apply my knowledge in a clinical setting through an internship where I can further develop my skills in psychological assessment, counselling techniques and mental health support.

I am adaptable, a quick learner, and dedicated to growing as a future clinical psychologist. With strong communication and problem solving abilities, I am committed to learn from experienced professionals and contribute positively to a clinical setting.
