Lourey has taught at SCTCC for 10 years in the Liberal Arts division and has published several books, including the Murder-By-Month series and most recently Rewrite Your Life. She’s also a recipient of the The Loft’s Excellence in Teaching fellowship, a blogger for Psychology Today, and has presented at a TEDx.
