My Project

The students I work with are unique and deserving of extra support as they navigate the challenges of mental health. My goal is to create an environment where they feel safe, valued, and understood—a space where healing can begin. The furnishings and accessories I’m requesting will make a significant difference in their learning and overall well-being. Soft, comfortable seating will provide a physical sense of ease, allowing students to relax and open up during our sessions. The right colors can evoke calmness, while thoughtful lighting will create a warm and inviting atmosphere, reducing anxiety and promoting focus.

A well-furnished office isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about creating a space that feels safe and nurturing.

Shelving units will keep therapeutic supplies organized and accessible, reinforcing a sense of order and stability, which is crucial for students who may feel overwhelmed by chaos in other parts of their lives. Clocks are essential for staying on track and ensuring that I can maximize the number of students I see, offering them the consistent support they need.

These students are not just in need of a place to talk—they need a safe space where they can begin to heal and build trust. By creating an environment that is thoughtfully designed with their comfort and needs in mind, I hope to provide them with the tools and support they need to thrive, both academically and emotionally.
