  <title><![CDATA[Getting to Know Carla Bradley]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p>The child of an engineer, Carla Bradley learned the power of data to persuade early on, when she surveyed her grade-school classmates in order to make the case to her parents for a larger allowance. That early success brought with it an appreciation for evidence-based approaches to problem solving.</p>

<p>She joined Georgia Tech in July as its new director for the <a href="http://counseling.gatech.edu">Counseling Center</a>, which provides mental health services and support to Tech&rsquo;s student population. A licensed psychologist with a doctorate in clinical psychology, Bradley has spent the last 16 years at the University of Colorado at Boulder.</p>

<p>&ldquo;I am thrilled to be at a STEM school where there&rsquo;s a real dedication to solving problems and helping the world,&rdquo; she said. &ldquo;To be surrounded by this kind of intellectual energy and passion is a real privilege, and I want to work with students in any way I can to make the Counseling Center a place of innovation and service.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Bradley sat down for an interview to share her enthusiasm for collaboration, her thoughts on technology-based options for mental health, and approaches for serving all students in need of support.</p>

  <!--  TO DO: correct to not conflate categories and news room topics  -->
  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
