Paul Siegel is a Professor of Psychology at Purchase College and a Research Associate Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Southern California. His work bridges psychopathology, clinical psychology, and emotional neuroscience, focusing on unconscious processes in emotion and their role in mental illness.
Research: Siegel’s translational research investigates how very brief exposure (VBE) to masked phobic stimuli can reduce fear without conscious awareness. This challenges traditional exposure therapy paradigms and has implications for treating specific phobia, social anxiety disorder, and PTSD.
Grants & Awards: He has received funding from the National Institute of Mental Health (including multiple R21 grants), the Infinite Hero Foundation, the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation, and the American Psychoanalytic Association. He also holds SUNY Chancellor’s Awards for Excellence in Teaching and Scholarship.
Publications & Teaching: Siegel has published extensively on unconscious exposure, fear neuroscience, and psychopathology. He teaches courses in Abnormal Psychology and Developmental Psychopathology.
