One of my lifetime goals is to become fluent in Spanish. I have studied the language for several years and have participated in short-term
study abroad and volunteer abroad programs. Currently, I am undertaking professional development activities which allow me to learn more about the Spanish language and cultures and to apply this knowledge to my clinical work. My recently-approved upcoming sabbatical leave will allow me to engage more deeply in this work. Eventually, I would like to be able to write some mental health articles in Spanish.
