Our lab focuses on youth externalizing behaviours, including ADHD, disruptive behaviours, and callous-unemotional traits. We aim to deepen our understanding of how to effectively treat these behaviours and ensure the successful implementation of treatments in both clinical and community settings.

We have several interconnected research themes: 

1. Develop, evaluate, and personalize interventions 
2. Factors that impact implementation of treatments in routine care settings
3. Access, use, and quality of care in routine care settings
