Psychology Major & Minor

“My favorite thing about Hartwick is the community. It is so easy to get involved with different groups and organizations. We are even encouraged to start our own club if we notice something missing on campus. I love how every student feels like an important part of the community. I have been so lucky to know the counseling staff through my work in 50/50 Peer Counseling. All of the counselors in the office work so hard and do so much without seeking any kind of recognition. They are all so inspiring to me and I hope to work and be like them when I leave Hartwick.”

“I have had supervised experiences providing therapy at several community mental health outpatient clinics and a combined inpatient and outpatient methadone clinic in North Philadelphia. I have also provided group, individual, and assessment at an inpatient facility for clergy and religious. I completed my dissertation in 2018 on Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy creating a clinical guide for psychologists interested in this non-traditional intervention.

I am completing my pre-doctoral internship at TEAMCare Behavioral Health in Lancaster, PA. I work with all ages providing outpatient therapy, completing evaluations for Autism Diagnostic clarification, and will be starting a new group for adolescents diagnosed with Oppositional Defiant Disorder. After I finish here, I will work at St. John Vianney Center (SJVC), an inpatient unit for clergy and religious. My future plans include opening up a private practice to provide services to college age students struggling with the triumphs and tribulations that often come with that life transition, as well as providing treatment for children, adolescents, and their families.”
