DENISE L. SCHMUTTE, Ph.D. is a freelance writer and editor with specialized training in technical communication. She has a Ph.D. in Psychology and 20 years of experience as a child clinical psychologist. She has also worked as a university professor, helping students with theses and other research projects. She has written for print and online publications geared to a variety of different audiences, with a special interest in the social sciences, health, and medicine. She has been working as a freelance writer/editor for about five years.
Denise provides assistance with research, writing, statistical consultation, and editing services to take degree candidates from proposal to final form for master's or doctoral level projects. She particularly enjoys working with students who have gotten "stuck"in the dissertation or thesis process, helping them to find new energy and clarify their thinking in order to move forward. Students in this situation often feel demoralized and hopeless, and a bit of unbiased feedback and encouragement can go a long way towards getting them "unstuck"and back on track.
Denise's work is fast and efficient, with a rapid turnaround time, and students appreciate her humor and supportive attitude.
CLIENT FEEDBACK
"Denise Schmutte was excellent. All of her suggestions for re-organizing the first drafts of my thesis were right on the money. Her expertise in line-editing in APA format relieved all the stress about that aspect of the job. I would not only recommend her to anyone who needed these services but would most definitely use her again. Thank you Denise!" (Contact info on request)
"The editing that Denise did on my thesis was excellent. Her understanding of the APA guidelines was a huge help to me. Initially I was worried about the cost and reluctant to engage in the word count costing model. In the end it cost me less than another editor who was not as familiar with the guidelines. I will use Denise and the network for all future work." Sandy Smith, Bastyr University
"Denise was excellent. She saved me from additional stress!" Eduardo Gonzalez, doctoral student, UCI
"Denise Schmutte was outstanding. I would recommend her highly for anyone needing APA editing services. I will be using her in the future for publishing purposes. I could not have completed the editing of my dissertation without her assistance." Karin McLeod, Walden University
