As we have now settled into winter break, take some time to check out Dr. Fallon Goodman's (GWU Clinical Psychology PhD program faculty) NPR article and podcast with tips to alleviate social anxiety, which can sometimes ramp up during the holidays!

The last Clinical Colloquium presentation this Fall was clinical psychology doctoral student Saskia Jorgensen, who will be presenting her second-year research project: “Exploring identity-related behaviors in LGBTQ+ people: Associations with identity centrality, pride, and community connectedness.”

It was a very interesting presentation that helped us feel some positivity as we head towards winter break! Great job, Saskia!
