Wish submitted by:

Adreana is actively involved in various community programs, including youth coaching and education services. Living independently, she’s focusing on her personal growth and exploring stable job opportunities. Despite facing tough challenges in her past, including childhood domestic violence and the emotional journey of placing a child for adoption, Adreana is committed to healing. She’s engaged in therapy and is considering joining a support group, showcasing her resilience and dedication to her well-being.

Joining a smash room can be a fun and helpful way for Adreana to deal with her tough feelings connected to trauma, grief, and stress. Although she usually uses peaceful methods like therapy, art, talking to trusted adults, and group support, there are times when her emotions feel too big to handle. A smash room gives her a safe space to let out her anger and frustration in a controlled way. It adds another tool to her kit for handling her feelings and helps her express herself without harm. Plus, it gives her a boost of confidence and a sense of control, which is super important when healing from difficult experiences.
