Research
Interests
My
program
of
research
examines
the
influence
of
Adverse
Childhood
Experiences
(ACEs),
trauma,
and
socioeconomic
status
on
human
development.
I
consider
development
in
a
variety
of
domains,
including
cognition,
academic
achievement,
socioemotional
functioning,
behaviour,
and
mental
health.
The
approach
I
take
is
unique
in
that
I
apply
a
“family
systems”
lens
to
understanding
these
developmental
phenomenon.
Specifically,
my
research
seeks
to
better
understand
how
stress,
adversity,
and
hardship
disrupt
life
for
entire
families
and
across
generations.
I
pay
particular
attention
to
the
way
family
members
(parents
and
children,
siblings,
and
couples)
relate
to one
another
during
real-time
interactions.
Collectively,
my
research
has
provided
empirical
support
for
the
foundational
tenets
of
family
systems
theory,
demonstrating
that
families
are
indeed
“more
than
the
sum
of
their
parts.”
Thus,
a
comprehensive
picture
of
human
development
and
children’s
mental
health
must
consider
how
whole
families
are
doing.
The
second
arm
of
my
research
program
concerns
the
development,
evaluation,
and
implementation
of
evidence-based
interventions
for
children
and
whole
families
who
are
struggling
with
mental
health
and
developmental
challenges,
particularly
in
settings
of
trauma
and
adversity.
As
a
clinician-scientist,
I
am
very
interested
in
trauma-informed
interventions
during
early
life
(e.g.,
Child-Parent
Psychotherapy)
and
systemic
approaches
to
family
intervention
(e.g.,
Structural
Family
Therapy).
I
have
also
conducted
a
number
of
evaluations
(including
Randomized
Controlled
Trials)
with
service
providers
in
Canada
and
the
US
in
the
context
of
child
welfare,
treatment
foster
care,
integrated
care
for
medically
complex
children,
and
reintegration
services
for
youth
who
were
previously
incarcerated.
I
am
committed
to
developing
partnerships
with
community
service
providers
and
making
sure
my
research
aims
are
embedded
in
the
contexts
in
which
families
seek
treatment.
Teaching
and
Clinical
Interests
I
have
taught
a
number
of
courses,
workshops,
and
seminars
including:
Introductory
Psychology;
Research
Methods;
Psychometrics;
Statistics;
Advanced
Clinical
Interventions
for
Children,
Youth
and
Families;
Trauma-Informed
Services;
and
Developmental
Psychopathology.
In
the
fall
of
2018,
I
will
be
teaching
Child
Psychopathology
and
Psychotherapy
at
UW.
Clinically
speaking,
I
am
interested
in
relational
psychotherapeutic
interventions
in
the
context
of
trauma
during
early
life
and
family
therapy
(e.g.
Child-Parent
Psychotherapy,
Structural
Family
Therapy).
I
also
have
interests
in
school
psychology,
assessment
and
formulation,
cognitive
behavioural
therapy,
and
parenting
support
for
families
of
children
with
externalizing
and
internalizing
problems.
