About the Keynote Speaker:

Dr. David Bradley earned his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, OH. He completed his pre-doctoral internship at the Cleveland VA Medical Center and his post-doctoral fellowship at Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center. Before earning his Ph.D., Dr. Bradley attended Boston College completing a bachelor's degree in history and a master's degree in mental health counseling, including a year-long internship at McLean Hospital’s OCD Institute. As an assistant professor at Pittsburg State University in Pittsburg, Kansas, Dr. Bradley taught and mentored clinical psychology graduate students before returning to New England to focus on full-time clinical work. He currently teaches as an adjunct professor at Rivier University’s Psy.D. program.

He also serves as vice president of OCD New Hampshire and regularly provides trainings in the community on providing evidence-based treatment for OCD.

Dr. Bradley has extensive training in empirically supported treatments for anxiety and related disorders in adults of all ages. He has received specialized training in exposure and response prevention (ERP) for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Additionally, he has received training and certifications in providing cognitive-behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) and prolonged exposure (PE).

Dr. Bradley also treats other mental health problems using cognitive-behavioral, acceptance and commitment therapy, and exposure-based techniques, including generalized anxiety, health anxiety, panic attacks, trichotillomania, excoriation/skin-picking, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder, phobias, and depression.

Poster Presentation Details:

Psychology undergraduate and graduate students from around the state are invited to present posters of their original research. Students are encouraged to present posters with complete results, but projects with partial results or even expected results will also be accepted. Presenters of three Undergraduate Research projects will receive recognition on the basis of project quality, creativity, difficulty, and quality of oral discussion. Priority in judging will be given to projects that reflect a high level of student initiative. Graduate Students-this is your opportunity to practice your presentations and get constructive feedback. Not presenting? Come and see the type of cutting-edge research being done by NH students and network with colleagues and future colleagues.

Please refer to our poster guidelines as you create your poster.  Recommended poster size is 36x48, but you may use the size required at your school or by your adviser.  Presenters should plan to hang their posters on the wall. If you are still completing data collection or analysis, your submission may describe your expected results.

If you plan to present a poster, please gather the following materials before registering for the conference: author list, complete title, and abstract of your poster.
