I am a clinical psychologist focused on behavioral treatments (especially brief and telehealth-based) for chronic pain as well as psychological predictors of adjustment to chronic pain. Much of my work thus far has been in the areas of advanced statistical analysis of questionnaire and daily diary data drawn from both clinical care and prior observational research studies.
