Presentation,
Chronic Illness and Mental Health
“I think the presenter did an amazing job. She was very knowledgeable [about] the topic and relatable. I liked her humor and story-telling that made it easier to pay attention."
Therapy
“Tamicka has done a fabulous job working with students with varying levels and areas of need. I've noticed a positive difference in the students she has seen. They so look forward to their time with her.“
Presentation,
Beyond the Prescription
"According to feedback provided, one fellow said the session was engaging, informative, and filled the lack of experience in their program coursework. The fellows also mentioned that the presenter did an excellent job of connecting her life experiences to the content of the presentation. Additionally, Tamicka had a great presence, wowing the fellows with music and engaging them in her story."
“To be passive is to let others decide for you. To be aggressive is to decide for others. To be assertive is to decide for yourself. And to trust that there is enough, that you are enough.”
