Name a cause you are passionate about.
Global warming is something that I am passionate about. Thinking of the adverse effects on the climate, our water, and land causes me significant anxiety and discomfort, which I believe can be a form of passion.
Why did you choose º£½ÇÂÒÂ×?
I chose º£½ÇÂÒÂ× because the community that is fostered here is unlike anything I have ever seen. Additionally, the incorporation of clinical practice and theoretical knowledge is an amazing feature of being a student at this school. Lastly, I believe that being part of the alumni of this school will be an invaluable part of my career and future in psychology.
What do you want to do with your degree?
After obtaining my degree, I plan to work in a therapy setting with couples to work through their problems, no matter what they might be.
How did you first get interested in the mental health profession?
I was first introduced to and became interested in the mental health profession when a professional came to my high school and did a quick summary and Q & A session with students. It was interesting learning about abnormal psychology in that way.
