Dra. Lynnette Sullivan

I'm a former student parent and first generation Mexican American college graduate , my passion is to empower other students to pursue a higher education. I started my educational journey at the Moreno Valley community college, received my bachelors in psychology at CSUSB, masters of counseling psychology from CBU, and completed my educational journey at USC- Doctorate of social work program. Currently, I’m serving as a mental health supervisor at a community college and adjunct professor at another community college. As a licensed therapist and suicide prevention trainer, I aim to empower first generation students to build protective factors in their life to eliminate barriers that lead to academic challenges, mental health challenges, and suicidal thoughts.

I talk to you about family, suicidal tendencies, and ways to prevent. Every human being goes through something in life but when we feel emotionally safe and able to communicate and ask for help, that is a bridge to healing.
