About me
- I graduated from the psychology program at Örebro University in 2010, and
did my clinical training for accreditation in both a primary and a
psychiatric care unit, and received accreditation in 2011.
2014 I started my PhD training in a research project focusing on effects,
moderators and mediators in cognitive therapy and behaviour therapy for
insomnia. I defended and received my doctoral degree in 2021.
All along my Phd training I have continued to work clinically. In the final
year of my PhD training and before transitioning to Centre for Psychiatry
Research at Karolinska Institutet, I worked as a lecturer at Örebro
University, holding classes on abnormal psychology, CBT, and prevention for
adolecents.
I am currently working as a researcher and lecturer with a
main responsibility for the course "Basic Training in Evidence-Based
Psychotherapeutic Method
Research
- My research interest in:
1. Examining and identifying effects, moderators or mediators of the
therapies and components in CBT for insomnia.
2. Examining the effect of cognitive behavior therapy delivered through a
smartphone application.
