About
I began teaching in the Psychology Department at
UW-Washington County on a part-time basis in January of
2003. At about the same time I was also teaching an
Adolescent Psychology class at UW-Oshkosh. Prior to that I
had taught or team-taught a few courses at Marquette
University while completing my doctorate in Counseling
Psychology ('00). I have always enjoyed & felt at home
around higher education as a student or teacher. I began my
college years at the UW-Wood County in Marshfield, and tend
to feel a deeper connection to students beginning their
studies at a two-year school. I especially value the
relationships I have established with my students over the
years at UW-WC, and enjoy challenging them to grow as
people. The positive feedback I have received from students
has kept me motivated to remain authentic, and work hard
during each lecture of every semester.
I have
enjoyed living in the West Bend area since 2001. In 2004, I
established my own mental health practice in the West Bend
area (Answers in Behavioral & Counseling Psychology, LLC). I
have been working there as a Counseling Psychologist on a
full-time basis, while teaching part-time at UW-WC. At
Answers, I treat a variety of people experiencing mental
health problems, and I have found that my teaching and
counseling positions complement each other exceptionally
well. I work hard to remove the stigma of seeking help for
emotional & mental health problems at both of my jobs. |
