Dr. Kendall Soucie is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at the University of Windsor, specializing in interdisciplinary health psychology, women’s health, and pandemic preparedness. Their research focuses on issues such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) patient narratives, nurse well-being during healthcare crises, and environmental psychology. Soucie leads major projects like the $15 million INSPIRE initiative to enhance Canada’s biomanufacturing and pandemic response capabilities. They collaborate with faculty across disciplines, including nursing, biochemistry, and environmental science.
Research interests include psychosocial outcomes of chronic illnesses, healthcare advocacy, and the lived experiences of nurses in border cities. Soucie has supervised doctoral and undergraduate students in projects exploring IBD identity, yoga therapy for breast cancer survivors, and civic engagement impacts. Their studies often employ mixed methods and qualitative approaches, emphasizing narrative analysis to understand healthcare challenges and systemic issues.
Recent work addresses pandemic preparedness through disease surveillance systems, while earlier projects examined environmental narratives in emerging adulthood and multicultural counseling competencies. Soucie’s contributions span over two decades, with publications in health psychology, medical sociology, and interdisciplinary public health journals.
