Dr. Erica G. Hyatt is currently an assistant professor of psychology at a small college north of Philadelphia. She completed her doctoral degree in social work at the University of Pennsylvania and has experience working as a clinician, administrator, and researcher. Dr. Hyatt has always been fascinated with the area of end of life care, death and dying, and bereavement. She became, unfortunately, all too familiar with grief when her first child was diagnosed with a rare and deadly congenital birth defect at 5 months’ gestation. She lives with her husband and their 3 dogs, 2 cats, rats, finches, and fish.
