In my research, I explore the psychological mechanisms that drive health-compromising behaviors, focusing on transdiagnostic factors like overvalued ideation, perfectionism, and impulsivity. By examining how these factors interact to sustain behaviors such as disordered eating and gambling, I aim to contribute to a comprehensive theory of mental health disorders. The ultimate goal of this work is to improve the prevention, assessment, and treatment of these conditions, advancing our ability to mitigate their impact on individuals and communities.

Another key area of my research investigates the mental health implications of group membership. By integrating social identity theory with principles from clinical and health psychology, I examine how group-related dynamics—such as perceived intergroup threats, group-based emotions, and social identification—shape the mental health and well-being of individuals. This work seeks to develop an integrative framework for understanding how belonging to a group can influence mental health outcomes, offering valuable insights for both theory and practice.
