Emily "Emmy" Kuhlmann, MA, CRC

Emily (Emmy) Kuhlmann, MA, CRC (she/her), is a Pediatric Track intern and doctoral candidate in Counseling Psychology at the University of Iowa. She completed her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and Neuroscience at Coe College, and her Master’s degree in Rehabilitation Counseling at the University of Iowa. Emmy’s research interests center around disability as a multicultural identity in youth. She is most interested in examining how chronic medical conditions and invisible disabilities impact identity across development, and elaborating on how positive disability identity can improve both mental and physical health. Her clinical interests include medical coping, adjustment to diagnosis, and supporting the psychosocial challenges of youth with chronic health conditions, particularly for marginalized and underserved groups. For fun, Emmy loves camping, thrifting, and being creative through crocheting and sewing. Emmy is very much looking forward to continuing her training and supporting children and families at UW-Madison!
