Kristen Riley


Ph.D., University of Connecticut

Kristen E. Riley is an assistant professor at the Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology. She obtained her Ph.D. in clinical psychology with a certificate in health psychology from the University of Connecticut, and completed a postdoctoral fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. She is a clinical health psychologist and behavioral medicine researcher. Her program of research aims to get people unstuck from maladaptive health behavior patterns at the individual, community, and systems levels for cancer prevention and health equity. Specifically, Dr. Riley optimizes health behavior interventions by focusing on cognitive components such as rumination, superstition, and stigma, and she uses dissemination and implementation science to integrate psychology and behavioral medicine into medical settings to get interventions to those who need them most. She is fluent in Spanish. She has special interests in daily diary methodology and health equity.
