She currently serves as the clinical psychologist in the Difficult-to-Treat (DTT) clinic within the Division of Pulmonary Medicine. She specializes in the assessment and treatment of poor adherence and self-management behaviors in adolescents with asthma. Her research background focused on cognitive variables that influence the transactional relationship between parent and child adjustment to chronic conditions. She has served as a clinical interventionist on multiple NIH-funded randomized clinical trials to promote pediatric self-management and medication adherence for a variety of chronic conditions, including epilepsy, inflammatory bowel disease, and asthma. Her long-term goal is to develop a technology-assisted, stepped-care, adherence-promotion intervention for adolescents with asthma.
