First Gen Journey Counseling and Consulting

Being the first in your family to navigate college and professional settings is filled with excitement, growth, transition, and joy. It can also be lonely, confusing, and stressful.

Do you feel caught between two worlds (family and work/school)? Do you underestimate your value or worth in places where you experience prejudice and discrimination? Are you struggling to define or accept who you are and what you value based on tensions with family or your culture?

When you are First Gen, there are often challenges in both your professional and personal life that are hard to understand and cope with but you don’t have to do it alone.

Working together, we will be able to gain clarity on how your experiences are impacted by your personal and family history, your communities, and society as a whole.

We will shine a spotlight on your strengths, build your confidence, and help you lean into how amazing you are.

We will explore how to manage the sad, frustrating, uncomfortable, and anxious parts of your life in a way that builds you up and grounds you in your values.

Existing in two worlds doesn’t have to mean separating your life. You can be your full self with anyone, anywhere.
