Faculty
The faculty of the Counseling, Educational and Developmental Psychology department have an extremely varied background (both academically and personally). As a whole we have an eclectic psychology department. Some of us are cognitive in philosophical orientation, some are radical behavioral, and others take even different approaches. We present students with all aspects of psychology that relate to development, education and counseling and do so in a friendly and supportive fashion. We are all extremely focused on our students and are committed to both undergraduate and graduate education.
If you have any questions about any of us - please drop us an email!
