Faculty Adviser
I graduated from Wayne State University in 2014 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Honors Psychology. My research interests broadly focus on the delivery of evidence-based programs aimed at ameliorating long-term maladaptive outcomes within primary care settings, home, school, and community mental health clinics. I am particularly interested in the development and evaluation of accessible and culturally-sensitive interventions for youth.
Additionally, I am interested in understanding the mechanisms through which these contexts influence each other to promote positive behavioral trajectories in young children. I also have an interest in measure development, primarily related to treatment integrity, to inform the development, delivery, and sustainment of evidence-based practice.
Other research interests include: understanding and decreasing barriers to mental health care; LGBTQIA2S+ mental health; evidence-based assessment; and supervision, coaching, and training of those that deliver evidence-based interventions (e.g., therapists, teachers).
