Andrea Putica

Dr. Andrea Putica is a clinical psychologist and researcher specialising in posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and Functional Neurological Disorder (FND). Her work focuses on emotion regulation and cognitive mechanisms, particularly how impaired emotional clarity and maladaptive appraisals maintain posttraumatic symptoms. She uses ecological momentary assessment and neuroimaging to study these processes in real-world and laboratory contexts.

Clinically, she is trained in evidence-based trauma-focused therapies, including exposure and cognitive restructuring. Her work aims to translate mechanistic insights into more precise interventions, with a focus on how trauma-related beliefs are identified and modified in treatment.
