Jamie Marich’s Summary

Teaching: I have taught online courses for the following universities: University of Phoenix, Argosy University, and Ottawa University. I also have a private professional training business; I have offered CEU courses for counselors and social workers around the country.

Some of my highlights while working as a therapist with co-occurring disorders at Community Solutions Association:
• Developed and implemented two new treatment programs: Illness Management and Recovery Group for dual diagnosis clients and a 12-step Facilitation Program for clients referred by external sources
• Supervising/mentoring certified chemical dependency counselors and counselor assistants preparing for oral licensure examinations; developed and implemented an original study method
• Introduced EMDR as a treatment modality to the agency in 2006; have conducted over 150 sessions of the specialized treatment with clients in this setting

Teaching Philosophy (short form): My goal is to enlighten the content of each syllabus with the experience that I have acquired and continue to acquire by working in the Counseling and Human Services field. My instructional style encompasses three major characteristics: (a) I am a student-centered instructor, helping each student reach his/her individualized goals for learning, (b) I carry the scholar-practitioner model of my training into my instructional style, and (c) I embrace a multidisciplinary approach in my instructional style.
