Rhea Friederichs, Online Grad School Experience
The professors are approachable and seem invested in the success of each student, and I love that my class is about five-to-six individuals and we are really close. The fact that we can experience working on the units and then bring back that information and lessons learned firsthand to the classroom is very positive.
It's been exciting for me to see the treatment field evolve over the years, bringing together the best of science and Twelve Step practices to help more people. The Graduate School continues to set the highest standard, preparing students to effectively address all aspects of addiction.
An added bonus was the opportunity to gain experience through being on the units—shadowing clinicians and working one-to-one with patients.
Working with families is one of my biggest challenges, simply because there are so many factors and dynamics involved in each situation.
They've been able to connect me with every population I've thought I'd like to work with while I'm here.
The best part of the program was being able to put into practice what we were learning in the classroom.
