I am doing a doctorate in clinical psychiatry with a focus on psychotherapeutic interventions and emotion regulation in Anorexia Nervosa.
I am a licensed psychologist with a background in adult psychiatry and a doctoral student. My doctoral project investigates whether specifically targeted psychological treatment (Radically Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy, RO-DBT) can be a helpful intervention in Anorexia Nervosa. The treatment targets rigidity and an excessive need for control. I also further investigate how underlying mechanisms such as the ability to regulate emotions are affected by intervention and how this is connected to the symptomatology in Anorexia.
