Bio- Hello! My name is Farhana Uddin and I am a graduate student in my final year of the Clinical and Counseling Psychology program at William Paterson University. As I continue my journey toward becoming a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work closely with youth from diverse backgrounds.

As a minority myself, it is incredibly meaningful to see mental health awareness growing within my community and to witness more individuals seeking help and support. I am eager to continue learning, growing, and being a source of support for the youth and their families as they navigate their own paths toward well-being.
