Hello! My name is Ana Ferraz-Castilho. I was born in Brazil. I’m a graduate student in the counseling program and a Peer Coach at TRIO Student Support Services, both at NEIU.
I value community engagement, and individual empowerment and growth, and I am here to connect with students that, like me, are pursuing ways to achieve their academic goals. As a Peer Coach I will strive to help you stay motivated and on track toward graduation.
“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”

As a life coach and licensed spiritual practitioner, I tend to infuse universal spiritual principles into most everything I do. I'm also extensively trained in addictive and compulsive behaviors. Merging the two paths, I use universal spiritual principles as a framework for teaching clean and sober living. I'm sure it is no accident that I always end up teaching that which I most need to learn myself. I think that's the way the Universe keeps me humble and on my toes. And to that end, I'm completely committed to my own therapeutic journey of self-discovery. My aim is to break through my upper limits and expand my internal container for good. I subscribe to the idea that I can only take a person as far as I have gone myself. Mostly, I'm just like everybody else, a person recovering from anything and everything. In the midst of what is simply life occurring, I always manage to find a way to move from merely surviving life into an actual experience of thriving in it.
My hope is that I can help others to thrive too.
