My Research
As a therapist and clinical researcher, I am passionate about using science to improve the lives of people experiencing emotional and behavioral challenges. To this end, my program of research seeks to understand how emotional problems develop in childhood, exploring the role of biological factors, the family's social environment, and the cultural context.
