Counseling Staff Spotlight✨

Aliah Hall

Meet one of our counselors at BYUH! She joined Counseling Services in May 2024, and her favorite part of the job is simple and sincere—the students.

Her goal is to help students strengthen their connections and build meaningful self-care skills that support their overall well-being.

Originally from California, she enjoys spending her free time sleeping, reading, and recharging. A fun fact about her: she speaks three languages.

She wants students to know that she genuinely cares and is here to support them.
Her comfort meal? A warm bowl of pho.
Favorite motto: “Empathy first.” 🌿

Counseling Staff Spotlight✨

John Suyama aka Mich

Meet one of our compassionate counselors at BYUH! He has been part of the Counseling Services team for a little over two years and loves working with students from all around the world. For him, it’s a privilege to be part of a university community that promotes peace and strives to live the teachings of Jesus Christ.

His goal is to help remove the stigma around seeking mental health support. Just as students would visit the health center when they’re physically unwell, he hopes they’ll feel comfortable coming to Counseling Services when life’s challenges arise.

Originally from Tachikawa, Japan, he grew up near a U.S. military base where both his parents worked and graduated from Yokota High School. In his free time, he enjoys spending time with his family—especially his amazing daughter, Susie—while exploring hidden food spots and new adventures around the island.

A few fun facts: he’s mastered driving Japan’s narrow streets and is known at home as the sous chef, grill master, and pancake professional. His go-to comfort food? His wife’s kimchee fried rice.

His favorite quote is one that guides his outlook on life:
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” — Martin Luther King Jr. 🌿

A big mahalo to everyone who visited our booth and took part in the Su***de Awareness Pinwheel Display for National Su***de Prevention Month.

Together, we remembered those we’ve lost to su***de, raised awareness, and strengthened our campus community.

Let’s keep supporting one another, spreading hope, and reminding each other that no one is alone.
