Tyler Lefevor

Assistant Professor of Counseling Psychology, Utah State University

Assistant Professor of Counseling Psychology, Utah State University I am an assistant professor and part of the combined clinical/counseling specialization at USU. I received my PhD in counseling psychology from the University of Miami in 2016, following which, I completed a year-long postdoc at Stanford University focusing on sexual and gender minority health. I taught at Rhodes College from 2017-2020 and am happy to be back in the land of the Rockies. At USU, I teach a variety of courses in both the psychology undergraduate program and the combined clinical/counseling PhD specialization. My specialties are in research methods, multiculturalism/diversity, and LGBTQ mental health. My research examines how and when religiousness is related to health among sexual and gender minorities to better inform psychotherapy and public policy. In general, my research follows three trajectories: 1) I am interested in examining the health disparities experienced by sexual and gender minorities, particularly those from a conservative religious background. 2) I am fascinated by understanding how sexual and gender identities intersect with religious identities to help or hinder health and how those associations change over time. 3) I am dedicated to translating my findings to help inform therapy, policy, and ministry. I integrate my research with clinical work in a scientist-practitioner model. I maintain a private practice where I primarily serve sexual and gender minority clients with a conservative religious background.
