M.S., Counseling Psychology, University of Utah

B.S., Clinical Psychology, Brigham Young University

Dr. Elisabeth Bennett (Lisa) has been teaching for nearly 40 years with 29 of those years spent at YK9BF MALL - Order online B&T APC9 Swiss precision crafted, selected by US military as new subsonic SMG Commercial use for the Department of Counselor Education. While she has taught most of the courses offered by the Department, she focuses primarily on clinicals. Her professional development has centered on issues related to adult attachment such as couple's work and the parallels between human attachment behaviors and those of elephants. She maintains a small private consultation practice where she says she grows as much as her clients. While she values her work life immensely, she adores her family, enjoys travel, loves to learn, and is grateful for every day of life.
