Research Overview Dr. Gutowski’s interests include promoting the well-being of underserved populations, understanding the role of psychosocial factors (stress, trauma, relationships) in mental health and functioning, and engaging in social justice work within psychology. Her ongoing research centers on women’s experiences with poverty and intimate partner violence. She is particularly committed to understanding how systems-level responses to women who are affected by these two stressors may either promote well-being or unintentionally cause harm. She is a scientist-practitioner and received her PhD from Boston College, served as a clinical fellow for two years at Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School and completed her clinical residency at Emory School of Medicine.
