Welcome Keith!!

We want to extend a warm LPS welcome to Keith Gunnerson, third year doctoral student, who has just joined the lab. Keith will be working with the team on providing automated feedback to therapists, as well as his own research. Keith is broadly interested in how religiosity integrates into psychotherapy process. We're excited to have you on board!

Here we go again!

Oh how the time flies! We are already on the first day of the Fall 2017 semester, just in time to watch the solar eclipse (faculty, students, and friends pictured right). Our second years--Keith, Derek, and Kritzia--have completed their preliminary exams, we're registered for classes, and the R01 and PCORI grants continue to be up and running! We're looking forward to the excitement and challenges that this year will bring.
