Kort presentation
Docent i medinsk psykologi
Forskare inom forskningsprogrammet UPIC (Ungas Psykiska hälsa I Centrum)
Föreståndare för det tvärvetenskapliga forskningscentret WOMHER – ett unikt tvärvetenskapligt centrum med målet att stärka kvinnors psykiska hälsa.
Biografi
Jag är verksam inom det tvärvetenskapliga forskningsprogrammet UPIC - Ungas Psykiska hälsa I Centrum. UPIC:s mål är att förbättra kunskapen om ungas psykiska hälsa och uttryck av såväl välmående och psykisk ohälsa för att bättre kunna förutsäga, förebygga och behandla de som är i behov av stöd och vård i tid. Genom att kombinera olika vetenskapliga perspektiv och metoder arbetar UPIC för att stärka ungas psykiska hälsa och ge dem framtidstro och livsglädje.
Min forskning bedrivs därtill inom det psyko-onkologiska forskningsfältet där psykologisk ohälsa, krisbearbetning, psykosociala besvär, socioekonomiska konsekvenser och behov av stöd från vård och samhälle i samband med en cancerdiagnos är i fokus. Gemensamt för dessa studier är att undersöka, förebygga och behandla psykosocial ohälsa hos de som drabbas av cancer själva samt deras anhöriga.
