Good To Self embodies many of Jeremiah's passions, including psychology and understanding ourselves and others; philosophy and our search for meaning; and literature, history, and the humanities, which help us make sense of life and share the story of humanity.

Jeremiah holds a Ph.D., M.A., and M.Div. and is licensed as a Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor with the state of Florida.

Always seeking new and interesting ways to reach across disparate disciplines, Eliza has very much enjoyed helping to create the Good to Self experience. Her hope is that GTS will act as a tool for those wishing to introspect more deeply, facilitating movement in the places we can too easily feel stuck. She recommends taking your time and attempting to remain open-minded, allowing space for exploration.

When not creating for work, Eliza enjoys reading, swimming, making music, and spending time with loved ones. She believes in the intrinsic value of curiosity, creativity, and kindness and plans to never stop learning new things. Eliza never passes up an opportunity to visit a post office, library, or art supply store and she is always ready for a snack.
