Kristen is a sixth-year graduate student in the MAD Lab and is currently completing her Predoctoral Clinical Psychology Internship at the Edith Nourse Rogers Memorial (Bedford) VA Hospital. She received her B.S. in Psychology from Brown University in 2015 and her M.A. in Clinical Psychology from Temple University in 2019. Prior to joining the MAD Lab, Kristen worked as a full-time Research Assistant at Butler Hospital, where she worked on several studies of novel risk factors for suicidal thoughts and behaviors. Kristen’s research interests involve behavioral manifestations of emotion dysregulation, including non-suicidal self-injury, suicidality, and aggression. She is particularly interested in the overlap between different maladaptive behaviors, the underlying cognitive-affective factors common to them, and forms of psychopathology in which multiple forms of emotional and behavioral dysregulation co-occur (e.g., Borderline Personality Disorder).
