I work as a senior clinical psychologist within the child and adolescent mental health services in Skåne (Southern Sweden) and as an associate professor at Lund University. I lead a research unit within CAMHS where we conduct large-scale projects of broad relevance to the field of pediatric mental health. The main aims of my research are to better understand what causes and maintains psychopathology in children and young people and how to most efficiently allocate available healthcare resources. I have a special interest in obsessive-compulsive disorder and anxiety disorders.
