Professional Interests, Experience, and Expertise.
I am currently a doctoral student at Antioch University and an AAMFT Supervisor candidate. I primarily work at a university counseling center as a clinician and training coordinator. My research interests mainly lie in all things platonic relationships. I am interested in the development and cultivation of intimacy, conflict management, and overall satisfaction in friendships across adulthood. I am also curious about validation, vulnerability, and emotional expression within friendships and romantic partnerships.
