Since receiving her M.S.W. from CUSSW in 1998, Ms. Douglas has worked as a private consultant to agencies and schools. Currently, in addition to teaching at Columbia, Ms. Douglas is working as a group therapist at the Larchmont-Mamaroneck Community Counseling Center, and she works privately with adolescents who are having self-esteem and school-based problems. She serves as a consultant to some private schools in Westchester, and hopes to form a local adolescent group for girls in her community. Her interests and research are based on evaluating different forms of adolescent therapy for effectiveness, adolescents and addictions: smoking, drinking, and drugs, self-mutilating behaviors in adolescent girls, grief and bereavement, and successful and healthy parenting in today's world.
When she is not working outside the home, her true passion is her family and two young daughters, ages 2 and 8 months. She also enjoys jogging and is currently training for the Walt Disney Marathon where she is hoping to raise money for Diabetes and a small agency in Washington, D.C. called: Diabetes Wellness and Research.
