Who Am I?
Andrea graduated
from Le Moyne College in Syracuse, NY with a Bachelor of Science degree in
Psychology and a minor in Chemistry in May 2007. She spent two years
following her graduation as a research assistant at the Regulation of
Emotion and Anxiety Disorders Lab at Yale University. She has a very strong
interest in the psychopathology of anxiety disorders (especially GAD and
SAD) and depression. At the ONRC, she hopes to gain experience working with
adolescents and to further her contributions
to the field of research.
She plans on returning to school
to obtain a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology in order to pursue a career in
which she can influence and advocate for children and adolescents
experiencing anxiety disorders and depression through psychological research
and clinical treatment.
