Peggilee Wupperman, Ph.D., is an associate professor of psychology at John Jay College/CUNY Graduate Center, an assistant clinical professor at Yale University School of Medicine, and a licensed psychologist in New York.[1] She is best known for developing Mindfulness and Modification Therapy (MMT), which seeks to address and treat dysfunctional behaviors in individuals.[2]

Education

[edit]

Dr. Wupperman graduated summa cum laude with her Bachelor of Science degree in psychology from the University of Texas, Dallas, in August 2001.[3] While there, she was under the guidance of Dr. Karen Prater in the Hobson Wildenthal Honors College and conducted research under Dr. Marion Underwood.[3] She completed her Master of Science in psychology and Ph.D. in clinical psychology in 2003 and 2006, respectively, from the University of North Texas.[4] Craig S. Neumann served as Wupperman's advisor and oversaw her research and doctoral dissertation, which sought to better understand the absence of mindfulness in individuals with borderline personality disorder.[5] Wupperman completed a predoctoral fellowship at Yale University School of Medicine's Yale New Haven Psychiatric Hospital from July 2005 to June 2006, at which time she began her year-long post-doctoral fellowship at the University of Washington with Dr. Marsha Linehan.[1]

Career

[edit]

In July 2007, Dr. Wupperman returned to the Yale University School of Medicine's Psychiatry Department as an associate researcher and supervisor.[1] There, she taught a graduate and post-graduate course related to mindfulness-based treatments in response to trauma.[1] In August 2009, she became an assistant professor at Yale University and also joined the faculty at John Jay College of Criminal Justice as a professor and chair of the Addiction Studies Program.[6][1] Dr. Wupperman founded and was subsequently the director of the Mindfulness and Modification Therapy research team at John Jay College from September 2009 to December 2013.[1][2] In 2013, Dr. Wupperman became a tenured associate professor and director of practicum training for the John Jay College clinical psychology doctoral program.[1] For the 2014–2015 school year, Dr. Wupperman was a supervisor for the Life Events & Role of Emotion Lab at John Jay College.[7] As of 2024, she still holds her role as director of practicum training within the doctoral program, is a faculty member for the forensic mental-health counseling program, and sits on both the departmental and college-wide diversity committees, ensuring that diversity, equity, and inclusion are upheld on campus.[8][9] She has taught courses related to substance use disorders, psychology of gender, psychopathology, therapy interventions, and mindfulness and modification therapy for students at the undergraduate, masters, and doctoral levels at John Jay College and Yale University.[10][1] Dr. Wupperman also sees therapy clients at the American Institute for Cognitive Therapy and through clinical trials of Mindfulness and Modification Therapy.[11]

Research

[edit]

Dr. Wupperman's main research focus is on understanding and treating emotional dysregulation, primarily through mindfulness and modification therapy (MMT), however, her broader areas of expertise include trauma and abuse, substance use, sexual violence, and aggression.[1][12] MMT brings together features of acceptance and commitment therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and other practices to help patients separate themselves from their uncontrolled and unmanaged behaviors.[13] After the completion of three grant-funded clinical trials, MMT is showing significant results in the treatment of aggressive behaviors, substance use disorders, binge eating, trichotillomania, and anger.[14] Based on information gathered through her research, Dr. Wupperman wrote ten articles in a series called Beyond Self-Destructive Behavior for Psychology Today between 2016 and 2020.[15] Dr. Wupperman has also been invited to present at many conferences around the world and also to conduct workshops and seminars for mental health professionals and other groups.[12] In the summer of 2024, Dr. Wupperman presented at the 7th Annual CEYou! conference on the time and cost saving qualities of MMT, which can specifically benefit people with impulsive and addictive behaviors that may not have engaged and participated fully with previous interventions.[16]

Relevant publications

[edit]

Dr. Wupperman's first published article, "Reconstruing the 'Reconstruction' of Psychopathy: A Comment on Cooke, Michie, Hart, and Clark", was published in 2005, the year before she completed her doctorate.[17] From 2005 to 2024, Dr. Wupperman has published a total of 36 articles and one book and been cited over 3,000 times.[18] Her most relevant articles include "Depressive Symptoms as A Function of Sex-Role, Rumination, and Neuroticism" and "Do Deficits in Mindfulness Underlie Borderline Personality Features and Core Difficulties?", which were initially written as her master's level thesis and doctoral dissertation, respectively.[4][5] Also among this list of most relevant and cited articles are those written about the use of mindfulness and modification therapy in specific populations: aggressive substance users and people with serious mental illness who use illegal drugs while on methadone[19][20][21]

In 2019, Dr. Wupperman published a book entitled Treating Impulsive, Addictive, and Self-Destructive Behaviors: Mindfulness and Modification Therapy.[22] This book offers time and cost-efficient ways for people to separate themselves from their dysregulated behavior and thinking, like eating disorders, aggression, anger, and unhealthy spending habits.[23]

Selected honors and recognitions

[edit]

Dr. Wupperman has been a member of the Phi Kappa Phi Honor Society since 2002.[1] During the 2004–2005 school year, she received the Bonney Honor Student in Psychology Award, which recognizes graduate students who perform well academically and show a strong commitment to their community through acts of service, from the University of North Texas.[24] Dr. Wupperman was awarded the Faculty Scholarly Excellence Award from John Jay College in 2014.[1] This award is given to faculty who are on the tenure-track or are already tenured and, for the last three years, have shown remarkable scholarship.[25] The University of Texas, Dallas awarded Dr. Wupperman the Buhrmester Rising Star Alumni Award in 2016 for demonstrating "outstanding early-career accomplishment" within ten years of her graduation with her bachelor's degree.[26] Dr. Wupperman's book Treating Impulsive, Addictive, and Self-Destructive Behaviors: Mindfulness and Modification Therapy was chosen Book of the Year: Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing by the American Journal of Nursing in 2019.[27]
