Victoria Christofi, Ph.D.
Director of Student Counseling Services
Licensed Health Services Psychologist
victoria-christofi@ouhsc.edu
Why I do what I do : "The pressures and stressors of university demands can be overwhelming, particularly when you add the pressures and stressors of education in health sciences. Tunnel vision can often result from being overwhelmed and our role is to help our students not lose sight of their future goals. Hence, counseling is an essential service to assist our students in reaching these goals."
