About Me

As a clinical psychologist, I conduct research and provide assessment and therapy services to children, adolescents, and their parents.

My research aims to improve psychotherapy outcomes for children and adolescents through three main areas of focus:

1. Understanding how established therapies work by studying mechanisms and moderators of treatment outcomes

2. Identifying factors we can target with new therapies to improve outcomes

3. Improving measurement approaches to capture richer, clinically relevant information.
