About me

I'm a clinical psychologist specializing in pediatric pain and psychiatric conditions. I lead a pediatric pain team in which we use experimental methods and neuroimaging to understand the mechanisms involved in pain and psychiatric conditions. My overall aim is to contribute to individualized and improved psychological treatments.
