WHO WE ARE

At The Psycle Lab, we believe in the power of diverse perspectives and experiences. Every member of our team is valued, and we embrace our differences as essential to advancing our mission. Together, we work to enhance mental wellness and reproductive health, making a meaningful difference in people's lives.

Values

Our research is guided by four core values

Patient-Oriented

We prioritize the insights and experiences of those directly affected by reproductive and mental health issues. By incorporating their perspectives, we ensure our research is relevant, impactful, and truly beneficial.

Access

We strive to improve access to psychological services and make our research findings readily available to all. We work towards bridging gaps in both reproductive and mental health care, ensuring that everyone, regardless of background, has access to the support and resources they need.

Inclusion

We are committed to identifying and addressing the needs of underserved or historically marginalized populations. Inclusivity drives our research, fostering solutions that benefit everyone and ensuring equity in health care.

Biopsychosocial

Our research integrates psychological, biological, and social perspectives to gain a comprehensive understanding of reproductive health and mental wellness. This multi-method approach allows us to explore the complex interactions that influence health outcomes.​
