is making space on campus available on a regular basis to a visiting
Psychologist from Archway Associates. By using space provided
by churches or religious houses, Archway Associates is able to
make psychological help available locally, conveniently and less
expensively. Dr. Kemske is a Nationally Certified Psychologist

as a Trauma and Loss Consultant and works with adolescents and
adults of any age. Dr. Kemske sees clients in individual, couple
and family sessions and has extensive experience with marital
therapy and premarital work. She approaches her counseling with
a respect for the faith life of those she counsels while incorporating
cognitive-behavioral, holistic, existential, art therapy, and
relationship therapy approaches and personal spirituality to assist
clients in identifying and realizing what they have in mind to
accomplish. Dr. Kemske is a fully licensed psychologist who earned
her Doctoral Degree in Clinical and Humanistic Psychology from
the Center for Humanistic Studies in 2006, and her Master's Degree
in 1996, and has developed expertise through completion of comprehensive
