Emily J Bartley, PhD

Dr. Bartley is an Assistant Professor at the University of Florida, College of Dentistry. She earned her B.A. in Psychology and M.S. in Clinical Psychology from Pittsburg State University, followed by her Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Tulsa. Dr. Bartley completed her clinical internship at Duke University Medical Center, with a primary concentration in Clinical Health Psychology and subspecialty in Pain/Biofeedback. She worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the University of Florida Pain Research and Intervention Center of Excellence (PRICE) with a focus on translational pain research.

A major focus of her research efforts to date has centered on the assessment of affective modulation of pain and nociceptive processing using psychophysiological testing in patients with acute and chronic pain. Dr. Bartley’s current research interests predominantly focus on investigating the biological and psychosocial factors that impact chronic pain and how these mechanisms affect patient response to intervention. She is particularly interested in adaptive processes that foster resilience in pain, with an emphasis on the development of targeted clinical interventions that promote resilience, goal-directed behavior, and positive health.
