In her personal time, she finds joy in cooking, baking, and collecting cookbooks. Self-care is important to her, and she engages in activities like getting massages, exercising, and trying out new wellness experiences like visiting a salt room. These interests reflect her holistic approach to life and therapy, as she believes in balancing work with personal well-being.
