Scholarly Interests:

My interests are in cultural diversity and multicultural psychology,
spirituality and religious integration (in mental health treatment),
sexual abuse trauma and healing recovery, substance abuse and
gambling addiction recovery, women's development and career
development. A continual thread my counseling and scholarly
interests is the intersection of cultural diversity in mental health
treatment (e.g., the influence of culture on healing sexual abuse
trauma).
