Student Spotlight: Lena Murphy
“Continually getting to know myself more and observing myself change and grow has been invaluable,” Lena Murphy (she/they) reflected. “This program has really challenged me to practice “both/and” thinking, which is definitely a growth edge for myself at the moment.” Lena is beginning her second year in the Wright Institute Counseling Psychology Program this fall.
Lena was born and raised in Seoul, Korea for the first decade of her life while her mother worked for the Army. During her time there, she attended a Korean-immersion school where half of all instruction was in Korean. “I have some really great childhood memories of Korea,” Lena shared, “and I think that experience definitely shaped who I am today.”
