Teaching

Workshops & Presentations

In recent years, much of my focus has shifted to teaching what I have learned through my work. Until recently I was a Clinical Assistant Professor at the Tufts University School of Medicine with a primary role as Behavioral Health Faculty Lead for the MMC Family Medicine Residency Program. In this role, I guided the learning of the next generation of physicians, developing the behavioral health curriculum and providing specific training on topics related to mind-body health. 

I am currently available to do presentations and workshops through my position as Director of Education and Outreach at Psychology Specialists of Maine (PSM; offices in Brunswick and Portland). Please review my CV (see Addendum at end) and this page about my areas of specialization to learn more about topics that may be the focus on my teaching. Example topics are listed to the right.

In my role as Director of Education and Outreach, I may also be able to recommend one of the many excellent presenters and content experts on staff or affiliated with Psychology Specialists of Maine.
