RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
Dissertation: Effects of Telephone-Delivered Cognitive Behavioral Stress Management Intervention on Fatigue
Interference and Neuroimmune Function in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Department of Psychology, University of
Miami
Defended Aug 26, 2015; Chairperson: Michael H. Antoni, Ph.D.
This project examined changes in fatigue interference and neuroimmune function in response to a telephone-delivered, 10week cognitive behavioral stress management (CBSM-T) intervention in 95 female patients with chronic fatigue
syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME). This study was the first to quantify fatigue interference in this population,
and to examine its associations with stress-related biomarkers (IL-6 and cortisol awakening response) collected from
participants’ blood and saliva. Furthermore, this study will examined whether CBSM-T reduced patients’ fatigue interference,
depressed mood, and neuroimmune dysregulation, post-intervention and 4 months post-intervention. Data were collected preintervention, post-intervention, and 4 months post-intervention. Data for this project came from a randomized controlled trial
funded by the National Institutes of Health.

syndrome (CFS) symptoms in 150 CFS patients and their partners. Responsibilities included intervention delivery, data
management, screening and consenting participants, biological sampling inventory and materials shipment, payment tracking,
statistical analyses of study data, and manuscript preparation. Supervised undergraduate research assistants and participated in

Master’s Thesis: Adult Attachment and Coregulation of Stress in Romantic Couples, Department of Psychology,
University of Miami
Defense Date: Dec 2012; Chairperson: Youngmee Kim, Ph.D.
This study tested the effects of physiological coregulation in romantic partners using a repeated- measures design with four
samplings of salivary cortisol as outcome and one between- group factor (pairing of partner) to determine whether one’s
HPA-regulated acute stress response is in part dependent on that of their romantic partner. Participants included 40 collegeaged couples. An experimental stress task asked participants to respond to a scenario wherein their romantic partner was
experiencing acute physical pain. Salivary cortisol was sampled before stressor task onset, immediately after 5- minute stress
task, and 8- and 18- minutes after. General linear modeling controlling for relevant covariates indicated that participants’
cortisol levels increased during the stress task and decreased after cessation. Attachment was not related to own or partner’s
stress response. Awarded $1000 from University of Miami Department of Psychology to fund cortisol processing.

These patients had a range of medical prognoses, racial/ethnic identities, socioeconomic backgrounds, and sexual orientations.
Presenting problems included mood and anxiety disorders, adjustment to disability, chronic pain, traumatic brain injury (TBI),
substance abuse, smoking cessation, personality disorders, and existential concerns. Interventions were integrative, and
included cognitive-behavioral therapies for symptom relief and relapse prevention, stress management (including coping
effectiveness training, mindfulness-based cognitive therapy), relaxation training (including progressive muscle relaxation,
guided imagery, and diaphragmatic breathing), psycho-education, supportive therapy, motivational interviewing, and
psychodynamic exploration. Completed intake assessments for new medical inpatients, using the MMSE, BDI-II/GDS,
Diener’s Life Satisfaction Scale, and clinical interview. Routinely met with interdisciplinary team, including attending
physicians, nurses, physical therapists, and social workers to address patients’ concerns.
Group Intervention: Co-facilitated a weekly 60-minute support group for patients with MS. Topics covered included adjustment
to disability, coping with losses secondary to MS as well as interpersonal losses, stress management, cognitive restructuring,
changes in self-image and body-image, stigma, anger, death and dying, and other emotional changes. Interventions were
primarily interpersonal, psychoeducational, and psychodynamic in nature.
