My research seeks to understand how to reduce the gap between what we Know and what we Do when it comes to scaling up brief evidence-based interventions in poorly resourced settings. My research is focused on understanding the mechanisms that underlie scalable psychological programs within resource-constrained settings. I work with the World Health Organization to design programs that meet the needs and wants of adversity-affected communities within high-income and low-and-middle income countries. I am particularly interested in leveraging implementation science methods to understand the mechanisms that underpin the uptake of scalable psychological programs within such settings.
