Bio

Hello! I am Shamayah Drew. I am a third-year psychology major at Winston-Salem State University and plan to pursue a career in counseling. My passion in life is to connect with, understand, and help others. I have been in therapy for a while which has helped deepen my understanding of psychology through my own experiences. Therapy holds a special place in my heart because it has helped me progress as a person tremendously over the years. I would love to one day have the opportunity to help others improve themselves just as my therapist and our sessions have helped me.
