I am a first-year Clinical Psychology doctoral student at the University of Michigan. I am primarily interested in the interplay/controversy between evidence-based practice protocols and culturally-centered mental health treatment, especially for groups and individuals with values that are inconsisent with Western individualist values embodied by mainstream psychology. I am currently assisting my advisor, Joseph Gone, with a community-based pilot study about integrating Native American traditional healing practices with mainstream mental health services at an urban health clinic. I also am interested in cultural differences concerning the role of "place" and "home" for healing, meaning, identity, and intergenerational connection. I am currently exploring these roles in the context of urban-dwelling American Indians. Other research interests include philosophy of social sciences, qualitative inquiry in psychology, philosophy of operationism in psychology, the therapeutic alliance, values in psychotherapy, cultural psychology, community psychology, ecopsychology, and decolonizing methodologies. Influential thinkers include Charles Taylor, Martin Heidegger, William James, Emmanuel Levinas, Wendell Berry, Robert Bellah, Keith Basso, and Clifford Geertz. I graduated with a B.S. in Psychology (minor in Philosophy) from Brigham Young University, and am indebted to my former advisor Brent Slife, who has introduced me to and has advised me in various theoretical issues in psychology. Specialties SKILLS: Writing, editing, teaching psychology and writing, writing tutoring, qualitative research, psychology statistics (SPSS, SAS), intelligence testing (WAIS, WMS), Excel. TOPICS: philosophy of science, multicultural psychology, William James, Native Americans, evidence-based practice, culturally-centered treatment, theistic psychotherapy, hermeneutics, therapeutic alliance, operationism, epistemology, ontology, Wendell Berry, methodological pluralism
