Assistant Professor
Dr. Rodriguez-Seijas’s research interests lie in (1) understanding the nature of psychopathology and (2) investigating the ways in which stigma, discrimination, and marginalization impact the manifestation, assessment, conceptualization, and treatment of psychopathology.
Dr. Rodriguez-Seijas typically explores transdiagnostic models of psychopathology, consistent with the aims of the Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology (HiTOP) Consortium’s efforts. In addition, he is committed to the dissemination of evidence-based intervention approaches for working with sexual and gender minority patients.
He is an Assistant Professor of Psychology in the Clinical Science area at the University of Michigan. He earned his B.Sc. from the University of the West Indies in Trinidad and Tobago, and completed his Ph.D. at Stony Brook University. Dr. Rodriguez-Seijas further completed his predoctoral internship and postdoctoral fellowship at the Methods to Improve Diagnostic Assessment and Services (MIDAS) program at Brown University’s Warren Alpert Medical School.
