You may be wondering about my background! I have a doctorate from the University of Southern California and have been teaching at the college level for over 3 years. My students' ages range from high school to mid-adulthood, as I often teach night courses for students interested in the alcohol and other drugs counseling certification. Classes I typically teach include Psychology 101, Developmental Psychology, Careers in Psychology, Case Management in Social Work, Group Therapy Facilitation in Social Work, and so on. I am certified to teach online and in-person.
Before teaching, I worked in the field of social work/human services for over 12 years. Most of my time was spent working with adults with severe and persistent mental illnesses and/or addictions.
