Dori Koehler, PhD

Director of Student Services

Education

I have been on a lifelong quest to study storytelling and stories as a phenomenon. I hold a BA in Literature from Westmont College, a MA and a PhD in Mythological Studies with emphasis on Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, and I am currently finishing up an MFA in English Creative Writing from Southern New Hampshire University.

Experience

I've been an educator, a trainer, a tutor, and an administrator for over 20 years. My work experience in archetypal psychology and the study of storytelling helps me understand what people need and how we might fill those needs.
