Psychological Mechanisms and Innovations

Our research program is focussed on key transdiagnostic processes that provide a basis for cutting-edge psychological interventions with a specific interest in the integration of psychological interventions and digital technologies. Our areas of research focus include emotional regulation, self-compassion, stigma, and mindfulness.

Our research interests have arisen from our work as clinical, and educational and developmental psychologists working across the lifespan. We translate our research into scalable, impactful interventions and innovative professional training programs.

The mission of the PMI Program is to advance the understanding of transdiagnostic psychological mechanisms and to leverage this knowledge to develop innovative interventions that enhance mental health and well-being. By fostering interdisciplinary research and collaboration, the program aims to translate scientific discoveries into practical applications that can positively impact individuals and communities.

Our vision

The vision of the PMI Program is to be a leading force in the field of transdiagnostic research and innovation. The program aims to enhance global mental health by pioneering innovative approaches and solutions for critical priorities. Through the translation of new knowledge into practice, PMI aims to inspire and equip the practitioners and researchers of the future, creating a dynamic nexus between cutting-edge research and transformative education.
