Jeff Elder

Pre-Doctoral Psychology Intern

Personal Statement:
I am excited to be here at Texas A&M with the traditions, the culture and amazing students. I really enjoy working with college students, as there is so much to decide and do during these formative years. Most of us will look back on our time at college as life changing, challenging and unforgettable. With all the growth that occurs, there are undoubtedly some growing pains. I am always impressed when someone reaches out for the help they may need, and am honored if I am allowed to meet with them through that process. I respect and appreciate diversity and individual decisions and focus on enabling people to meet their aspirations, whatever they may be. On a personal note, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, enjoying the outdoors, especially water sports and the beach and watching and playing sports.
