Hi, I’m Jamie. I am trained as a clinical psychologist and previously worked with adolescents struggling with depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. Ultimately, I am interested in how we change our behaviours (especially in a therapy context) and how emotions, motivations, costs and rewards influence our decision-making and learning process. I currently have two projects: one is about how emotional states change the way we evaluate effort and the other is about trying to model ambivalence and readiness for behavioural change. I also work together with Isabel Berwian on computational psychiatry projects. On the side, I am building a science journal on child and adolescent mental health for parents and mentor PSY and COS students on a variety of projects.
