Catherine is a Ph.D. student in Health
& Rehabilitation Sciences working in the Laboratory for Well-Being and
Quality of Life in Oncology at the University of Western Ontario. She received
her undergraduate degree in Health Sciences in 2008 and completed her Master of
Science degree in Rehabilitation Sciences in 2009 from the University of
Western Ontario. Through her interdisciplinary M.Sc. research Catherine
examined the influence of distress on quality of life in individuals diagnosed
with head and neck cancer. As an extension to this area of psychosocial
oncology, Catherine’s doctoral research focuses on the personal and social
consequences related to elevated levels of distress in oncology. Specifically,
her research centers on how the presence of distress relates to decrements in
mental health and quality of life for individuals diagnosed with and treated
for cancer. In addition to this work, Catherine also works in the Voice
Production and Perception Laboratory where she is actively involved in several
collaborative projects that address communication disability in those treated
for head and neck cancer.
