Short info

My research focuses on the mechanisms and processes of treatment change, translating discoveries from neuroscience into clinical applicationsemotion regulation, and the cultural expressions of psychopathology, especially anxiety disorders. I am interested in predicting therapy outcome with brain imaging using machine-learning approaches. I have been developing Process-based Therapy, a transtheoretial model of psychotherapy based in evolutionary science using a complex network approach to target the fundamental processes of treatment change with simple core therapeutic principles. I am also interested in examining the therapeutic efficacy, moderators, and mechanisms of psychodelica, such as psilocybin, for treatment of anxiety problems.
