Summary

My research focuses on qualitative and quantitative examination of the clinical and ethical implications of biological (i.e., genetic) attributions of psychiatric and neurologic disorders for illness and treatment perceptions and decision-making. I also engage in psychotherapy research investigating the impacts of evidence-based treatments on symptom change, the therapeutic alliance, and treatment outcomes.
