Current Research Interests:
My research program focuses on the development and evaluation of behavioral and psychosocial interventions to improve the physical and psychological adjustment of cancer patients and their family caregivers. For example, I have recently studied the health effects of written emotional disclosure for women with metastatic breast cancer (F32CA130600, PI: Mosher). My current observational research examines the psychosocial, practical, and health maintenance needs, barriers to support service use, and support service preferences of lung cancer patients and their family caregivers in preparation for intervention development (R03CA139862, PI: Mosher).
