Faith is a first-year MA student in the Clinical Psychology program. She completed her BA in Anthropology in 2014 and a BA in Psychology in 2017. She works as a study coordinator on a study examining the efficacy of two kinds of group therapy for women with Sexual Interest/Arousal Disorder. She also works on the first study to look at women’s subjective sexual response and user experience with virtual reality erotica, which may help inform future treatment for women’s sexual concerns.

Faith is co-supervised by Drs. Lori Brotto and Paul Hewitt in the UBC Sexual Health Lab and the Perfectionism and Psychopathology Lab. She is interested in how sexual motivation may influence attentional processes to sexual stimuli and the underlying cognitive mechanisms associated with sexual dysfunction in women.
