Ursula has conducted descriptive research and clinical trials with marginalized women who have experienced gender-based interpersonal violence for more than 30 years and with women veterans for more than a decade. She has conducted a series of clinical trials of Trauma Center Trauma-Sensitive Yoga versus cognitive processing therapy with women veterans with complex trauma, PTSD, and comorbid depression and chronic pain. Kelly’s program of research has expanded in the past several years to include studies related to suicidal thoughts and behaviors of nursing students—both pre and post licensure—and to deaths by suicide and accidental overdose of registered nurses. Specifically, she has investigated gaps in data related to those deaths and the circumstances surrounding them.
