Introductory Psychology
Online and classroom materials organized to help with our foundational intro classes.
I absolutely love introducing psychology to students and bringing them into our field! We see how everything in psychology can help us deeply understand ourselves, both personally and scientifically. It's a challenge for me too because it's so easy to have our field fall into disparate pieces with nothing to do with each other. But within every topic, I try to interweave themes of our development, the role of culture, and the brain, and how mental health matters.

Let’s struggle with profound personal questions like how come we can want something for ourselves so clearly, and yet be our own worst obstacle?
