Current Research Interests

  • Health behavior change
  • Dyadic interventions
  • Social relationships and well-being

Brief Research Statement

Social relationships play an important role in our health and well-being, especially during times of uncertainty or crises. However, conflicts within relationships can undermine their benefits. In our project, I am concerned with how interventions can be designed to resolve conflicts within families or friendships. To do so, my focus not only lies on dyadic processes, but also the context in which they take place.
