Profile
Ph.D. in Medical Anthropology (Wayne State University)
Professor, University of Michigan
Founder and Executive Director of the Multicultural Study of Trauma Recovery Consortium (MiStory)
Dr. Denise Saint Arnault carries out research about trauma recovery, culture and help seeking.
She develops and tests her Cultural Determinants of Help Seeking theory in research with women in the U.S., Ireland, Japan, Brazil, Italy, Romania and Portugal.
She uses mixed methods to discover how distress experiences, culturally based meanings (such as stigma and sense of coherence), social support, and social negativity impact the help seeking journey.
Her Clinical Ethnographic Narrative Interview (CENI) provides a transcultural method that allows people to explore the cultural and social influences in their search for health, and also promotes self-awareness and active engagement in the help-seeking process.
