Background

About Jemima Utami

I am a social worker and psychotherapist with a Master’s in Social Work, blending clinical insight with corporate experience in project coordination, stakeholder engagement, and program development. As a first-generation Southeast Asian immigrant (Indonesian-Chinese), I bring a culturally informed and trauma-sensitive lens to my work with individuals, families, and communities. My background spans frontline advocacy, mental health support, youth mentorship, and international community development. I’ve worked across corporate and nonprofit settings, leading teams, managing cross-functional projects, developing training modules, and coordinating research efforts. Over the past five years, I’ve been actively engaged in grassroots initiatives, psychoeducational programs, and clinical work that serve diverse populations.
