Dr. Valerie Maxsam earned her doctorate degree from CalSouthern University. The Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) program at CalSouthern is tailored to equip students to practice psychology across various clinical environments.

Despite the possibility of pursuing clinical licensure, Dr. Val's true passion lies in teaching. With 19 years of experience as an educator, her dedication is centered around sharing knowledge. While the avenue of clinician licensing remains open, she finds greater fulfillment in educating, coaching, motivating, and fostering a culture of health and well-being.
