Dr. Robert M. Martin received his doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) after completing an APA-accredited internship at the Jesse Brown VA Medical Center. He then completed a post-doctoral fellowship in the Trauma Services Program at the Edward Hines, Jr. VA Hospital. Subsequently, he served as Assistant Professor in the Psy.D. Program in Clinical Psychology at William Paterson University between 2018 and 2022 before joining the Ph.D. Program in Clinical Psychology at Fairleigh Dickinson University. His research interests include the interplay between (implicit) cognitive and emotional processes in general and within affective psychopathology. He also investigates the comorbidity among psychiatric disorders (e.g., depression, anxiety, PTSD) using the symptom-level approach and mechanisms of change in evidence-based psychotherapies. The ultimate research goals are to inform the conceptualization of psychiatric disorders and to improve psychological interventions.
