## Hey there and welcome to my channel! Hello there! I'm Anthony and my pronouns are he/they. Some friends call me Affector, AoC, or Augustine. I am a cozy queer RPG streamer who cultivates cozy chaos and is also a passionate advocate for mental health and recovery. I dig tabletop games, Final Fantasy, and roleplaying. I'm a psychotherapist by day and a Warrior of Light by stream. I am currently running an actual play 5e D&D campaign known as the Frog Pond Academy. This is a slice-of-life, mystery solving adventure of first year students at a magical academy. You can catch us live every Wednesday at 8:30pm EST. I'm also working on playing through every mainline Final Fantasy game. We started with FFI and are currently now up to FFVI, which is my favorite! Other streams you may catch include Final Fantasy 14, cozy games, retro RPGs, as well as the occasional one shot tabletop adventure. On the third thursday of every month, I live record my podcast Roll for Reslience (#R4R) where we have conversations about roleplaying games and how they intersect with healing and personal growth. *Yes, I am a licensed mental health clinician, but I cannot offer psychotherapy or other like support through this stream. If you, or someone you love is in need of professional support, I suggest dialing 9-8-8 for immediate help (USA only). You may also consider browsing [EMDRIA](https://www.emdria.org/find-an-emdr-therapist/), [TherapyDen](https://www.therapyden.com/), or [Open Path Collective](https://openpathcollective.org/) to find a licensed clinician near you.*
