My research program lies at the intersection of autism services, mental health, and implementation science. My work focuses on improving community services for people on the autism spectrum across the lifespan. I am particularly interested in engaging autistic individuals and other stakeholders in community-partnered research, preventing suicide and self-harm in people on the autism spectrum, and training and supporting community mental health clinicians to work with this population. I am also a clinical psychologist, with expertise in the assessment and treatment of co-occurring psychiatric conditions in autistic children, adolescents, and adults.
