Welcome to the Shigemoto Lab!
My name is Yuki Shigemoto (he/him/his), and I am an Assistant Professor of Counseling Psychology in the Department of Psychology at the University of Florida. I earned my Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology from Texas Tech University.
My research focuses on how individuals and communities recover and grow after adversity, such as disasters, trauma, and public health crises. In particular, my lab studies how people grow after adversity, who has resources and who loses them, and how communities recover and grow together.
