What We Do
Our work includes research, training and clinical services on discrimination and stigma, particularly for gender and sexual minorities. We have research and clinical services related to sexual orientation and gender identity through the Rainbow Clinic. The Rainbow Clinic is a specialty service in the Psychological Consultation Center. The lab also has community-based participatory research aimed at improving health care and quality of life for indidivudals who identify as transgender and gender non-conforming. This is conducted under the umbrella of Trans Collaborations. The lab is led by Dr. Debra Hope and is comprised mainly of graduate students pursuing their Ph.D. in clinical psychology and undergraduate research assistants.
Dr. Hope is no longer doing anxiety research. For a list of anxiety-related publications click here. Please access the social anxiety treatment materials here.
