Dylan Messana, Psych Intern

I’m a psychology student at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, working toward my B.A. with the goal of becoming a therapist. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, where I developed a deep interest in how people think, feel, and connect with one another. I’ve always been curious about what shapes our inner world and am extremely passionate about mental health, especially how we can create space for healing, reflection, and growth.

As I continue my studies, I’m eager to learn more about the therapeutic process and how to support others with empathy and care. This path feels deeply meaningful to me, and I’m grateful for every opportunity to grow and contribute along the way. I am excited to be managing Natalie's social media page this summer, while gaining knowledge about the field.
