Jonathan S. Abramowitz, PhD

Clinical Psychology

(Director of Clinical Training and Martin S. Wallach Distinguished Professor)

 

Anxiety and fear are the most common psychological problems. In our lab we conduct research to advance the understanding, prevention, and treatment of clinical anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). 

 

This site provides information about myself, the UNC Anxiety Lab, our research projects, and the opportunities available for undergraduate and graduate students interested in the treatment and study of anxiety and related disorders.

 

Our lab considers an ideal scientific community to be one that includes a diverse representation of individuals at all academic levels. We are committed to training students and scientists of all backgrounds.

 

Latest news and notes:

• I will know whether or not I’ll be accepting a new graduate student for the Fall 2026 semester in early September 2025– please check back for more information then.

 

• If you have questions about applying to our clinical psychology PhD program, please read this important information for prospective students first.

 

• Unfortunately, I also do NOT have any openings for Research Assistants, Post-bacc positions, or Post-doctoral trainees for the 2025-6 academic year. I’m sorry!
