Current Research Interests
My current research interests include investigation into the nature and treatment of eating disorders. In particular, the development and dissemination of guided self-help treatments for eating disorders and the role emotion dysregulation plays in the etiology and maintenance of disordered eating behaviors. In 2010, I received a Mentored Patient-Oriented Career Development Award from NIH whose primary aim is to compare the efficacy of two guided self-help treatments for binge eating disorder.
