Our research identifies risk and protective factors
for the development and worsening of depression, suicidal thinking, and self-injurious behaviors among adolescents. The goal of our research is to inform suicide prevention programs and promote adolescent mental health using clinical and developmental science, and ensure that research and mental health is accessible and equitable across youth from diverse backgrounds.
