Hello! My name is Julia Serrano & I graduated from UCSD this past Spring with my B.S. Clinical Psych/B.A. Ethnic Studies & minor in dance! I currently am 10 weeks in to the first semester of my Master’s Program at Cal State Long Beach for Counseling Psych! As someone who just went through midterm season, my biggest tip for everyone is to block your study time & block the time for yourself! You will feel more whole & grounded when you give yourself time for self care!
