My guest is Dr. Ramya Avadhanam, who recently earned a PhD in Counselor Education and Supervision from The College of William & Mary. Over the past seven years, she has provided counseling to individuals, couples, and families in a variety of settings, delivered presentations at national and international conferences, and conducted research in the areas of multiculturalism and systemic practices.
Dr. Avadhanam discusses how mentorship has contributed to her academic, professional, and personal growth, explains her process for respectfully broaching cultural issues with clients, describes her ongoing struggles with perfectionism, and offers tips for maintaining a balanced approach to excelling in a graduate counseling program.
