Lisa A. Goodman, PhD (she/her/hers)

Professor
Boston College
Newton, Massachusetts, United States

Lisa A. Goodman is a clinical-community psychologist and Professor in the Department of Counseling and Applied Developmental Psychology at Boston College. She conducts community-based participatory research on intimate partner violence, aiming to illuminate how survivors use their social networks for healing and safety, and how to improve systemic responses. Dr. Goodman has published over 150 peer reviewed articles and received grants from the National Institute of Justice and the National Institute of Mental Health to pursue research in these areas. She is the co-author (with Deborah Epstein) of Listening to Battered Women: A Survivor-Centered Approach to Advocacy, Mental Health, and Justice, published by the American Psychological Association, and lead author of the Community-Based Participatory Research Toolkit for Domestic Violence Researchers, available online at https://cbprtoolkit.org/.

Dr. Goodman consults to national and local domestic violence organizations, and has conducted domestic violence program evaluation trainings in communities across the country. She also serves as an expert witness in criminal and civil matters involving intimate partner violence and coercive control. In 2011, she co-founded the Domestic Violence Program Evaluation and Research Collaborative, an ongoing collaboration among DV programs, researchers, and policy-makers in New England. Dr. Goodman is also interested in social justice pedagogy and healing practices that extend beyond the 50-minute hour in counseling psychology.

She has received national awards for her teaching, mentoring, and research, including the Elizabeth Hurlock Beckman Award, the Bonnie Strickland-Jessica Henderson Daniel Distinguished Mentoring Award, and the Society for the Psychological Study of Social Issues Award for Outstanding Graduate Teaching and Mentoring.
