Dr. Kathleen Armstrong joined the faculty at USF in 1998, bringing with her considerable clinical skills from her field experiences as a school psychologist. She is a licensed school and clinical psychologist, who has been honored by her professional society as Florida's School Psychologist of the Year. Dr. Armstrong's research interests focus on understanding and addressing developmental delays and disabilities. Her clinical role includes functioning as part of a multidisciplinary team that offers assessment, diagnosis and treatment to children with developmental disabilities and chronic conditions and support to their families. Dr. Armstrong's work lead to the development of Helping Our Toddlers, Developing Our Children's Skills (HOT DOCS), a parent training curriculum which offers caregivers evidence-based strategies to understand and address children's everyday challenging behavior issues. HOT DOCS is now available and is offered in both English and Spanish.
