Caravella McCuistian PhD is a Clinical Psychologist and Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of California, San Francisco, in the NIDA-supported T32 Drug Use Treatment and Services Research training program and the NIDA-supported Learning for Early Careers in Addiction and Diversity (LEAD) program. Her research interests include addressing health disparities among underserved populations including substance-using populations, racial/ethnic minorities, women, and individuals living with HIV. She has conducted research that utilizes community-engaged methodology, including community-based participatory research, to develop behavioral interventions to improve health, including the development of culturally informed HIV prevention interventions for women who use substances as well as women engaged in transactional sex. Dr. McCuistian is also interested in addressing health disparities in novel ways such as integrating health interventions into substance use treatment facilities as well as leveraging technology to provide interventions to underserved communities. As part of a new partnership between CTBH and the LEAD program, Dr. McCuistian is being mentored by Dr. Sarah Lord in her research to identify facilitators and barriers to use of technology-based approaches for SUD treatment and related health services in residential treatment settings.
