Research Interests

My research interests lie in the area of couple and family relationships, with an emphasis on physical and mental health-related adversity (i.e., diabetes, cancer, suicide, alcohol use, depression, and anxiety) and coping strategies through the lens of couple and family relationships. In addition, I am interested in stress and coping theories in couples and families dealing with health-related adversity. Finally, I am interested in positive intra- and inter-personal relationship processes including: forgiveness, compassion, and mindfulness as potential prevention, intervention, and postvention tools aimed at promoting couple’s and family’s well being and relationship quality and stability in stressful situations.
