Spotlight: Bridget Cho, Cohort Seven Fellow
Bridget Cho, Cohort Seven fellow, will begin her tenure-track position as an Assistant Professor in the Psychology Department of the University of South Carolina Aiken in August 2020. She will provide clinical supervision to masters-level clinical trainees in the Applied Psychology Program, teach undergraduate and graduate psychology courses, and continue her research. Bridget’s research centers on parent-child relationships in the context of adversity, with the ultimate goal of informing culturally relevant evidence-based interventions for families experiencing adversity and trauma. Specifically, she plans to conduct mixed-methods research on parenting among families living in rural poverty, to partner with a local Child Advocacy Center to conduct clinical research on trauma treatments for youth exposed to maltreatment, and to implement and evaluate a brief parenting intervention for young children involved in child welfare services.
Bridget is currently a predoctoral psychology intern at the University of California Davis Children’s Hospital CAARE Center in Sacramento, CA. In line with her interest in maltreatment that initially drew her to the Doris Duke Fellowships, Bridget provides treatment and assessment for children and adolescents who have experienced abuse, neglect, and other forms of trauma. Specifically, she is working toward national certification in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy. Bridget also completes psychological evaluations for parents referred by Child Protective Services to help determine service recommendations for parents to successfully reunify with their children. In addition to her clinical work, Bridget collaborates with researchers at UC Davis on a large-scale study of PCIT among historically disadvantaged communities with a specific focus on parenting behaviors that relate to treatment outcomes for children.
Bridget’s long-term career goal has always been to contribute to the education and training of psychologists, and to the field of maltreatment research, in academia – which has been actualized through her new position at USC Aiken. The Doris Duke Fellowships was instrumental in helping her to reach this goal. Bridget says, “Being a Doris Duke fellow has shaped my career in so many ways. The amazing network of peers and mentors in the fellowship provided me with excellent training, especially in child maltreatment. Maybe more influential than the training, though, was how the fellowship gave me the inspiration and confidence to tackle big projects that will really make a difference in the lives of kids and families. I am so grateful for the fellowship and look forward to continuing to develop these relationships!”
Leadership Committee December Meeting
The Doris Duke Fellowships Leadership Committee convened at Chapin Hall on December 10-11, 2019. The meeting began with feedback and updates from Lee Ann Huang and continued with robust discussions amongst the Leadership Committee over the two-day period.
