I am a PhD student in the Rücklab research group.

Main supervisor: Volen Ivanov
Co-supervisors: Christian Rück, Erik Andersson and Lorena Fernández de la Cruz

My primary research focus is hoarding disorder and the development of novel treatments. I am currently conducting a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to investigate whether home visits from in-home declutterers (outreach housing support provided by the social services) enhance the effectiveness of group cognitive-behavioral therapy for individuals with hoarding disorder. The trial also includes implementation research through a process evaluation, as well as a qualitative assessment on participants' experience of receiving the interventions. The studies are a collaboration between Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm's healthcare services and the municipality of Stockholm.
