A Message from Our Founder

Aliah Hasan, AMFT

"I have been in the mental health field since high school. I was president of the peer mentor club. I followed my passion and got my undergrad degree from CSUMB in psychology. While in school I had an on campus job as a peer mentor helping those struggling academically, and emotionally. I furthered my education by getting my master in Marriage and family therapy from CSUDH. Along this journey I have seen the disconnect with people associating mental health as ONLY mental illness. I have created It’s an everybody thing and AFF to educate people that we all have mental health. AFF focuses on building self-love, and changing people’s negative views about themselves."
