\"Ariann<\/strong><\/p>\n

How did your experience here at Chapman prepare you for post-grad pursuits?<\/strong><\/p>\n

My time at Chapman gave me the confidence to pursue further education due to the quality of education and one on one relationships I was able to build with wonderful mentors and successful professors, within my desired field of study\/work. These things helped me see how a future in my desired field was a realistic possibility that I could move towards after graduation. I was truly ahead of the curve\u00a0 in graduate school due to the quality of education received at Chapman! I was able to handle the difficulty of graduate school as undergraduate really primed\/prepped me for this.<\/p>\n

Also, in my last year at Chapman I found that completing a thesis project gave me a head start to the rigors of graduate level work.<\/p>\n

Were you involved in research or clubs or other activities?<\/strong><\/p>\n

During my undergrad at Chapman I was involved in a few different things. I was a board member for the B+ Foundation, a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority, and the Psi Chi Honors Society. I also was a research assistant at a psychology lab at UCI.<\/p>\n

\"Ariann<\/p>\n

Please share your goals and aspirations. \/ Why did you want to go into Clinical Psychology?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I received my Doctorate degree in Clinical Psychology in 2022. I am currently in the process of completing licensure requirements as a postdoctoral level psychologist. I will be licensed, hopefully, by this summer. I hope to continue in private practice where I primarily work with young adults in long term individual therapy, with a primary focus on trauma, relational difficulty, family of origin issues, and identity development. I chose this career path due to my passion for mental health services. I view therapy as a beautiful and magical process in which human connection is the antithesis to trauma and suffering. I feel privileged and honored, daily in my work, that people trust me to be a part of their good and bad days throughout life. Being a part of another human being’s healing and growth journey is an absolute gift! I also hope to continue to teach and supervise at the undergraduate and graduate level throughout my career. I love being in academic spaces!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
