DR. NORRIS DUPREE

Over the years, I have gained a wealth of knowledge and experience in the mental health field, various educational settings and working with diverse community agencies. I have earned my Ph.D. from the University of Nevada Reno in Counseling and Educational Psychology with an emphasis in Consultation. I have approximately 25 years of experience working with co-occurring disorders and at-risk families (children, adolescence and adults) that ranged from substance use, severe diagnoses (Bipolar, Schizophrenia, Anti-Social), developmentally delayed, traumatic brain injury, and fetal alcohol syndrome/fetal drug affect. I have also worked with agencies such as parole and probation, foster care, acute facilities, rehabilitation program, and various institutions. I worked in numerous education settings that consist of Washoe County School District, Storey County School District, and part-time professor at the University of Nevada, Reno. My mission is to empower individuals to live a productive life, despite circumstances they are encountering. My experience includes teaching, counseling, supervising, seminar facilitation, guest lecturer, threat assessment, consultant, team building and performance enhancement. I am currently self-employed at Transformations Therapy and Behavioral Consultation as an emotional and behavioral consultant.
