Research Interests

Our laboratory focuses on the development and evaluation of cognitive behavioral treatments for anxiety and mood disorders. Much of our work is focused in the area of PTSD specifically. We have ongoing research evaluating treatments for PTSD, understanding what predicts who will benefitĀ from such treatments, which treatments people prefer, and optimizing PTSD treatments for refugee populations. We also have conducted treatment trials in the area of pediatric posttraumatic stress disorder, depression, and bipolar disorder in youth. Our research has involved us in varied clinical settings: sexual assault programs, substance abuse programs, and outpatient treatment programs for anxiety and depression.
