As a blogger and memoirist, I write real stories about mental illness, child abuse, language barriers, and identity.
My debut memoir "I Asked the Blue Heron" is now available in stores and online in Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and Kobo.
I refuse to be medicated by a doctor that doesn’t inquire about my symptoms or engages in conversation with me to try understanding my emotions. I will fight the insurance company if it is necessary and find community resources that favor strong psychotherapy over the use of chemicals to treat serious mental illness.
