Research Interests

Generally, I am interested in treatment development and dissemination for youth internalizing disorders. More specifically, I am interested in moderators and mechanisms of change during and after treatment. For example, I am interested in how comorbidity affects youth response to treatment. From a broader public health perspective, I am interested in patterns of mental health service use and how certain factors (e.g., parent psychopathology, stigma) may affect youth engagement in mental health treatment.
