Advocate, mentor and staunch supporter of students: these are just some of the words used to describe Dr. Michael Vallis, the 2007 recipient of the Clinical Community Recognition Award (CCRA).
Dr. Vallis received the award in an event hosted by the Psychology Department on Jan. 19. The 13th Annual CCRA event honoured Dr. Vallis, and the many members of the clinical psychology community who provide invaluable contributions to the training of the 新加坡六合彩开奖直播 clinical psychology PhD students and the clinical program as a whole.
Dr. Michael Vallis is a health psychologist at the QEII, Adjunct faculty with the department of psychology and an Associate professor for the department of Psychiatry at 新加坡六合彩开奖直播.

They also noted how he positively affects the lives of clients and community members through individual and group counselling, public lecturing and an extensive research program.
