Research Interests

My research interests generally focus on the study of clinical psychology and human sexuality, specifically sexual functioning. My graduate research 1) examined the symptom and biopsychosocial profiles of gay, bisexual, and queer men who experienced recurrent and severe pain during anal penetration, 2) explored possible etiological pathways, 3) tested a theoretical model of maintaining factors, 4) assessed the diagnostic criteria for Genito-Pelvic Pain/Penetration Disorder among gay, bisexual, and queer men, and 5) identified barriers to treatment seeking behaviours. I am also interested in the adaptation of sexual and mental health interventions for LGBTQ+ populations.
