ARELLANO, Ph.D. INSTRUCTOR I Educational Attainment ● PHD BEHAVIORAL MANAGEMENT ● MAEd GUIDANCE & COUNSELING ● AB PSYCHOLOGY About Dr. Joy Arellano is a dedicated individual with a background in Psychology, Master’s degree in Guidance and Counseling, and holding a PhD in Behavioral Management. Her passion lies in the arts, particularly painting, and I find solace in expressing myself through poetry, with a favorite piece titled “Do Not Love Half Lovers” by Khalil Gibran. Dr. Arellano has a passion for research because it deepens her understanding of human behavior and fulfills her innate curiosity about the world. Family is at the center of her universe, as she cherishes her role as a spouse and parent to two wonderful children. Guided by the mantra “I did not come this far to only come this far”, Dr. Arellano strives to continually grow and positively impact those around her.
