Allison (Alli; she/her) entered the UNL Clinical Psychology Training Program in 2023. She graduated from the University of Michigan in December 2020 with a B.A. in psychology and a minor in education policy. Alli’s program of research investigates how aspects of one’s intimate relationship shape individual and relational health and wellbeing across the pregnancy-postpartum transition. Specifically, she is interested in sexual and reproductive objectification by intimate partners during pregnancy and the postpartum period. Outside of the lab, she enjoys finding little free libraries in her neighborhood, reading in parks, and seeing all the shows and musicals that come to town.
