Becca Brock received her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Iowa in 2012. She was a post-doctoral scholar in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Iowa from 2012-2015, and joined the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) faculty in 2015. She is also a Research Associate at the University of Iowa and continues her collaboration with Grazyna Kochanska and Child Lab.

Becca is the director of the UNL Family Development Lab, and is an Associate Professor in the Clinical Psychology Training Program.  Her program of research is aimed at understanding the development of psychopathology (e.g., mood and anxiety disorders) across the lifespan with a focus on the family context and its etiological significance.  In particular, her work has focused on couple relationships, applying a multidimensional model of relationship quality to understand functioning across several domains (e.g., partner support, balance of respect and control, conflict management strategies, closeness and intimacy, sexual satisfaction).  Her research includes the translational goal of developing interventions for preventing and treating adult and child psychopathology and comorbid family dysfunction.  Becca teaches courses in quantitative methods (e.g., Structural Equation Modeling, Multilevel Modeling) and provides statistical consultation in the department. She also provides clinical consultation and supervision (individual and couples therapy).

In her spare time, Becca enjoys being outdoors, watching sci-fi and fantasy movies, interior design, and gaming (especially RPG and deck-building).
