Colin T. Mahoney, Ph.D.

Dr. Colin Mahoney received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from Idaho State University in 2018. He then completed an NIMH-funded T32 Research Postdoctoral Fellowship at the National Center for PTSD and the VA Boston Healthcare System under the mentorship of Dr. Brian Marx and Dr. Katherine Iverson. Dr. Mahoney joined the Department of Psychology at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs (UCCS) in 2021 as a tenure-track Assistant Professor of Trauma Psychology. His research focuses on identifying risk, maintenance, and protective factors for the symptoms and diagnoses of co-occurring posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders (SUD) primarily among women following exposure to interpersonal violence (i.e., sexual assault, intimate partner violence, community violence) and secondarily among veterans of all gender identities. Dr. Mahoney’s research efforts are intended to inform, enhance, and develop evidence-based integrated assessment tools and clinical interventions for these co-occurring disorders.
