Meet Shamiana
Hi, I’m Shamiana and I have my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Michigan-Dearborn. I have considerable clinical experience in intimate partner violence (IPV) and sexual assault (SA) crisis intervention and advocacy, as well as research experience in a wide breadth of psychological areas–attachment, emotion, trauma, memory formation processes, and cognitive-neuroscience. I am currently pursuing my PhD in Counseling Psychology at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (my #1 program), and hope to continue working with IPV/SA survivors as a feminist researcher and clinician following graduate school. I am passionate about leveraging my experiences to help students from diverse backgrounds succeed in their journeys to the PhD.
In my free time, I love going to concerts with my partner and spending time at home with my lazy greyhound and my grumpy cat, and embrace my inner Pisces by learning new crafts and reading fictional romance novels. I’m also highly intuitive, which lends itself well to how analytical I am despite being a Pisces!
FAQS
What do financial consultants do?
Financial consultants provide financial advice and guidance to individuals and families. They can help you develop a financial plan, choose investments, save for retirement, and protect your assets.
How do I choose a financial consultant?
When choosing a financial consultant, it is important to consider their experience, qualifications, and fees. You should also make sure that you feel comfortable working with them and that they understand your financial needs and goals.
What is the difference between a financial consultant and a financial planner?
Financial consultants and financial planners are both financial professionals who can help you manage your finances. However, there is a key difference between the two. Financial consultants typically focus on providing advice on specific financial products and services, such as investments, insurance, and retirement planning. Financial planners, on the other hand, take a more holistic approach to financial planning and can help you develop a comprehensive financial plan that covers all areas of your financial life, such as budgeting, debt management, and estate planning.
