About the Student Assistance Specialist

Hello! I am so happy to be the Student Assistance Specialist at Lawrence 
Brook School. I have worked in high schools and middle schools, but the 
students here at LBS are my favorite! 

Degrees: 
MA Clinical Counseling
BA in Psychology
Fairleigh Dickinson University-College at Florham

New Jersey Department of Education Certifications: 
School Counselor
Substance Awareness Coordinator

I also teach psychology classes at Raritan Valley Community College.
I teach Intro to Psychology, Theories of Personality & Abnormal Psychology

I will be continuing my graduate school classes this year!

Kean University
Teaching the Holocaust Advanced Seminar-Fall 2008
Teaching Prejudice Reduction Advanced Seminar-Spring 2009
I took similar classes last year and found them very helpful when doing 
lessons and having discussions with students regarding character education, 
specifically tolerance and caring. I will continue to utilize my new 
knowledge throughout the new school year. (For more information on my role 
at Lawrence Brook, please see the The Role of the Student Assistance 
Specialist at the top of the page)

East Brunswick University 
Inclusion Class
This will develop my skills to better support your student through the 
I&RS/SAC Committee. Please see the link for more information about that 
committe on my homepage.

If anyone comes across interesting research or a must read book for 
educators, please pass it along. I have found over the years that parents 
are sometimes my best resources! Thank you in advance.
