How I Work With Students

I view my work with students as a collaborative relationship in which ideas, perspectives and opinions are exchanged in a supportive, non-judgmental space. In my work with students I operate from a holistic framework that utilizes a variety of approaches and techniques that are tailored to meet the needs of each student.

About Me

I am a case manager for Counseling Services.  I received my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Columbia University. I completed my APA approved pre-doctoral internship at the University of California, Davis and began my post-secondary education at the community college level as a single mother and re-entry student. I received my A.A. degree in Social Sciences with an emphasis in Psychology from Butte Community College and later transferred to California State University, Chico where I received both my B.A. and M.A. in Psychology.
I have devoted my training and professional career to working with the college student population and have experience in both California and New York. I serve on various UC Davis campus committees that help to promote the enrichment of student life and health and wellness.
I provide case management services to all students and have specialty interest in multicultural training, bystander intervention, peer training and programming, biracial identity, single mothers in college, first generation college students, and Chicana/o Latina/o mental health.
