Lena Etzel

I am a current Clinical Health Psychology Ph.D. student at UNC Charlotte. I am originally from Germany, but moved to the USA following my graduation from high school. I received my B.A. in Psychology from Queens University of Charlotte.

Research Interests: I am interested in factors that contribute to individual differences in stress experience and response. I would like to examine how strategies (e.g., emotion regulation, third wave approaches) can modulate such stress-response in adaptive ways, thus affecting individual health and overall well-being.
