Congratulations to AMPP Lab’s Julia Leonard on her successful dissertation defense. Her findings suggest that strength-inclusive culturally centered diagnostic language using DICE-PM promoted therapist hope for the client and perceived capacity to build the therapeutic alliance.

Congratulations to AMPP Lab members Lauren, Jared, and Hannah on their successful dissertation defenses! Their research explored religious trauma, men’s friendships, and men’s self-compassion.
