Samantha L. Levang (she/her) is a Ph.D. Candidate in the Clinical Psychology program at Queen’s University. Under the supervision of Dr. Caroline F. Pukall, Levang’s Master’s research focused on vulnerability and resilience processes associated with sexual distress and sexual satisfaction in the endometriosis population. Her Ph.D. program of research applies a Crip and intersectional frame work to critically examine the lived experiences of individuals with endometriosis and chronic overlapping pain conditions. Central to this work is an exploration of disability identity formation, the role of stigma in shaping pain experiences, and how structural inequities affect access to care and health outcomes.
