Current Interns

Emma Webster is a fourth-year clinical psychology graduate student at Emory University and first-year intern at CAMP. Her research focuses on how genetic risk and family processes shape the development of substance use disorders throughout childhood and adolescence. Clinically, Webster is passionate about working with children, adolescents and teenagers struggling with anxiety- and mood-related disorders. She also works with families and parents to help develop effective strategies for regulating behavior and promoting a supportive family environment. In her leisure time, she enjoys reading fiction, weightlifting, listening to music and snuggling with her cat. 

Shania Friedman is a fourth-year clinical psychology doctoral candidate at Emory University and first-year intern at CAMP. Her research program has examined how prenatal and early postnatal factors may contribute to risk and resilience for psychopathology in youth. Currently, Friedman is exploring the infant gut microbiome as a mechanism linking prenatal stress-exposure and offspring depressive and anxious symptoms. In her clinical work, she treats adolescents experiencing mood disorders with cognitive, behavioral and acceptance-based approaches. She is particularly interested in how developmental processes, such as identity formation, relationship development and the search for meaning intersect with and maintain emotional distress. During leisure time, she enjoys cooking, baking, exercising, reading and spending time with her family.

Jocelyn Stanfield is a fourth-year clinical psychology graduate student at Emory University and a first-year intern at CAMP. Her previous research program focused on prenatal substance use and its impacts on maternal wellbeing and child development. Stanfield's current research interests involve exploring contextual factors related to pediatric chronic pain. In her clinical work, she is passionate about working with young children who struggle with anxiety-related disorders, neurodevelopmental differences and distress tolerance. Outside of work, Jocelyn enjoys reading fiction, watching anime and running. 

Linying Li is a fifth-year student in the Psychology PhD program at Emory University. Her current research explores the application of AI and language technology in clinical contexts, with the aim of better understanding how the same mental health condition like depression or anxiety can show up very differently in each person. Li hopes to facilitate the move away from “one-size-fits-all” approaches and toward more personalized care. In her clinical work, she provides evidence-based intervention that integrates cognitive-behavioral and acceptance-based approaches. She is particularly interested in exploring the role of human relationships – how they influence daily functioning, self-identity and the lens through which people view the world and their surroundings. During leisure time, she enjoys cooking, playing music and being outdoors.
