Research Interests:

Katherine adopts a biopsychosocial perspective in her clinical psychology research, exploring system-wide interactions that impact well-being and mental health pathology. Her doctoral research broadly examined the interplay between stress and immune activity and depression, focusing on how these factors contribute to cognitive deficits. Specifically, she is intrigued by the roles of cognition and stress appraisal in influencing neuroendoimmune activity among transdiagnostic populations experiencing depression.
