Background

About Kimberly Collins

I am currently a doctoral student in Counseling Psychology at Fordham University. Not long ago, I earned a Master's degree in School Counseling from Villanova University (May 2020), following 10+ years in education as a classroom teacher. As an international educator, I taught English Language and Literature, English as an Additional Language, and Drama to both middle school and elementary age students in Asia and in Europe. I also taught mainstream English literature to native and fluent English speakers at the Secondary level. In the United States, I was a 5th grade classroom teacher. It was after seeing an increased and urgent student need for adequate and sustained in-school counseling services that I was able to make an informed decision to move into the field of mental health. I also have past experience in the magazine publishing industry and have worked as an editor, researcher, and reporter in print publications. I possess significant experience as a writing tutor.
