Research Interests: I am interested in predictors of trauma disclosure and other help-seeking behaviors, especially the reporting of sexual assaults to police. I am also interested in correlates of victim-blaming and rape myth acceptance; my long-term goal is to develop an intervention that will help reduce the prevalence of victim-blaming and increase supportive responses towards victims.  

Clinical Interests: Working with adolescents and young adults in the fields of trauma and eating disorders.
