Brinkley received her MS in Psychology from the University of Georgia in 2022. Her doctoral research focuses on perceptions of and self-identification with general and maladaptive personality traits, including endorsement of a "cardinal" or dominant trait. Brinkley is an enthusiastic advocate of open science approaches as forces for transparency, collaboration, inclusion, and self-correction in science. Brinkley's primary clinical interests are the treatment of trauma-related pathology, psychodiagnostic assessment and case formulation, and working with LGBTQ+ clients. Brinkley likes cats, board games, jigsaw puzzles, pinball, and yoga.
