Ms. Betty Struzick has been providing therapy services to individuals and families for over 40 years. Having a licensed clinical social worker from the Veterans Administration Tennessee Valley Healthcare System available at the Daniels Center demonstrates the commitment that both the VA and MTSU have to providing campus-based access to services that meet the needs of student veterans.  Whether the student veteran needs just to talk over a troubling situation or needs more in depth help with personal or family issues, Ms. Struzick is available to assist.  She is pleased to be a part of the team at the MTSU Charlie and Hazel Daniels Veterans and Military Family Center.

Betty was born in Tennessee and is happy to be returning to her home state to begin the next phase of her career working with the men and women student veterans at MTSU.  She has a Master’s in Social Work from the University of Alabama (UA) and a Master’s in Public Health from the University of Alabama in Birmingham (UAB).  She has worked in medical and mental health positions at UAB, UA, and Auburn University.  She chose to apply for her current position with the VA because she wanted specifically to work with the men and women who chose to serve their country through their military service. 

Many of Betty’s professional experiences have been in programs that were the first of their kind.  She finds being a part of a team with creative new ideas to be both challenging and gratifying.  Her door is open and if there are ways you think she can help or programs that you believe might be useful please let her know.  Your unique experiences as veterans make you the most qualified to make suggestions of things that might assist you and your family to make your time at MTSU successful and rewarding.
