We are looking for researchers who care deeply about studying trauma, identity, and recovery. The RECLAIM Lab is a space for thoughtful, reliable, and motivated people who want to be part of meaningful work with survivors. 

PhD Applicants (Fall 2026)

Dr. Faith Nomamiukor will be reviewing applications for a new PhD student to begin in Fall 2026 through the Clinical Psychology PhD Program at Sam Houston State University. If you are interested in research on sexual trauma, masculinity, health behaviors, or trauma recovery, especially with attention to gender and cultural identity, you may be a strong fit for the lab.

Research Assistants

We are also currently accepting applications for research assistants (RA). RAs must be able to dedicate at least 5 hours per week to the lab. Tasks may include helping with literature reviews, recruitment, coding for qualitative research, and attending lab meetings.

Email Dr. Nomamiukor if you are interested in joining the lab. Please include a short introduction and your CV or resume. We especially encourage students from underrepresented or nontraditional backgrounds to reach out.
