Trisha Glover

Psychology

Trisha is a fourth-year graduate student in the Clinical Psychology Ph.D. program at Washington State University in Pullman, WA. Originally from the Pacific Northwest, she earned her B.S. in Biology and Psychology from Pacific Lutheran University in 2018. After graduating, Trisha went on to earn her M.S. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Texas at Tyler in 2021. Trisha’s clinical interests include assessing and providing therapy services to children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders. She is also drawn to using evidence-based, individualized interventions to support children and adolescents who have experienced trauma. Her clinical work is grounded in a holistic, strengths-based approach emphasizing family involvement and team-based support. Trisha’s research interests include the neurobiological underpinnings of developmental disorders, particularly in children and adolescents from underserved and low-socioeconomic status (SES) communities. She is also interested in how protective and risk factors impact the development of psychological disorders in early life. After graduating from Washington State University, Trisha hopes to advance treatment availability and options for children and adolescents diagnosed with neurodevelopmental disorders. Outside of her academic, clinical, and research roles, she enjoys spending time outdoors with her dogs, being with her family, and exploring ways to support her community.

Trisha is committed to improving access to high-quality, evidence-based services for children, adolescents, and families in underserved and low-SES communities. She is interested in models of care that integrate multiple disciplines and services to address the complex needs of children and adolescents diagnosed with neurodevelopmental disorders. Through her participation in URLEND, Trisha hopes to grow as a leader, develop collaborative skills across disciplines, and contribute to systems-level change that reduces disparities in care for neurodiverse children, adolescents, and their families.
