Teaching
As a professor of psychology at Brandeis University, I am passionate about working with the next generation of psychological scientists. I currently teach Introduction to Psychology (Psyc10a), Research Methods and Laboratory in Psychology (Psyc52a), and Clinical Psychology Practicum I and II (Psy161a and Psyc161b). I also mentor student researchers in partnership with the Child and Adolescent Research on Development (CARD) Lab with Drs. Ellen Wright, Teresa Mitchell, and Xiaodong Liu.
Introduction to Psychology
Introduction to Psychology (Psyc10a) exposes students to the many subfields of psychology. The primary goal of the course is to help students think like psychological scientists so that they can apply the principles of psychology to their daily lives.
Research Methods and Laboratory in Psychology
Research Methods and Laboratory in Psychology (Psyc52a) is an experiential learning course that offers students hands-on experience developing, testing, and refining their own hypotheses about psychological phenomena.
Clinical Psychology Practicum I and II
Clinical Psychology Practicum I and II (161a and 161b) is a yearlong two-course series in which students complete offsite clinical internships and participate in weekly seminars to integrate their experiential learning with concepts from course readings, reflections, and discussions.
