Naomi Ben-Yehuda
Naomi has lived in Richmond since the fall of 2010. Her mother's family came to the United States in the early 1900's (3 generations past) and on her father's side she's a first generation American. She's been an Arts Degree Advisor since before there was a Faculty of Arts! She enjoys helping students understand how their bachelor's degree can come together to include their chosen major(s), minor(s), and electives.
Naomi has a Master of Science degree in counselling psychology and a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology with a minor in communication studies. She has worked the weekend graveyard shift on a crisis hotline, did her graduate practicum in a career counselling centre, and have been academic advising since 2001. Students come to advisors with their personal lives influencing their career goals, which inform their academic choices, so she tries to look at each individual holistically, in order to help them reach their goals.
