Carolyn Kaufman

Clinical psychologist and freelance writer Carolyn Kaufman is the owner of Archetype Writing: Psychology for Fiction Writers at http://www.archetypewriting.com. So many fiction writers have asked her about psychological disorders, treatments, and concepts that she realized the information is either not available or not available in a form that's easily accessible to writers. Because one of her passions is media psychology, she also knew that psychologists are attempting to reach out to writers, but haven't yet found a good way to do it. Someone needs to bridge the gap, Kaufman thought, and it's going to be me! Kaufman received her doctorate in clinical psychology from Wright State University's APA-accredited program in Dayton, Ohio and completed her internship at the University of Pittsburgh in Pennsylvania. Her areas of interest include crisis and trauma, relationships, creativity, business psychology, and media psychology. She also teaches at the college level, emphasizing the practical application of psychology to everyday life. This approach has transferred well into her work with writers. She began writing at the age of 11 and hasn't stopped since! She has written not only for print but also for digital media, and is often quoted in magazines and newspapers as an expert resource, as with Marie Claire, The Boston Globe, The Ohio Psychologist, and Shape magazine.
