Research and Practice Interests

While I am a trained behavioral scientist, I have a diverse set of research and clinical practice interests. I hold a master’s degree in the field of Human Behavior and Organizational Psychology and have developed and taught graduate level courses focusing on behavioral consultation and Organizational Behavior Management (OBM). My dissertation research was in the field of Behavioral Medicine, and I am the Director of the New England Behavior Analysts for Sustainability. Over the past few years, I have researched the application of behavior analytic principles to treat pain and pain causing behaviors, promote pro-environmental behavior change, increase the effectiveness of consultation, and improve organizational systems.
