When the candidate is completing a pre-doctoral CPA-approved internship across the country in BC, the Doctor of Psychology dissertation defense happens virtually (thankfully!) on May 24th, 2023. Big thank you’s to Drs. Sheila Murta (external, University of Brasilia), Yoshi Takano (Chair), and Colin Campbell (Committee Member) for serving on this committee. This is the second dissertation defense from our program at UPEI. Dissertation title: Exploring the role of Solution Focused Brief Art Therapy (SFBAT) on Self-Esteem and Anxiety level of pre-adolescent immigrants.
