Our research lies at the intersection of Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Health Informatics, and Psychology. We focus on broadly on digital mental health, investigating the uses, perceptions, and effects of technology on users' mental health. We look at the interaction from a holistic perspective, which means we investigate general purpose technology, non-condition-specific health technology, and condition-specific technology with the purpose of informing design. Thus, we consider mental health generally (i.e., emotional, psychological, and social aspects) as well as mental illnesses. We take a user-centered approach - meaning we put people first.
