Professional Interests: My areas of interest include humanism; mindfulness-based stress reduction; neuropsychology; trauma resilience; and suicide and violence prevention and intervention. I love working at the university and with all students. I frame my interventions within the context of the systems in which the student exists. In my current role, my approach is largely eclectic, and I tailor my interventions to the needs of the student in the moment. My theoretical approach is informed by anti-oppressive practice, a strengths-based, trauma-informed perspective, compassion, and authenticity.
