Martin Lepage and Ghassan El-Baalbaki. Her research interests include investigating associations between emotion regulation, interpersonal difficulties and trauma history in the context of psychosis. Her thesis specifically explores the potential mediating roles of emotion regulation and interpersonal difficulties on the relationship between childhood trauma and psychosis.

Danielle’s clinical interests include cognitive behavioral approaches to improving functional outcome in psychosis.
