Mission Statement

The ADRC is committed to a multidisciplinary, science-driven approach to improving our understanding and treatment of anxiety and depression.

We investigate cognitive, behavioral and biological risk factors and correlates of anxiety and depression, from which we develop and evaluate augmented and novel treatments, their mediators, and mechanisms of action.

Further, we are committed to the dissemination and implementation of the findings of our research into clinical practice settings. To this end, we provide therapy, workshops, manuals and scientific publications for educational and training purposes.

Our research relies upon the following principles:

      • Freedom of science

      • Transparency, accountability and collaboration in science

      • Science for the benefit of all

      • Ethical conduct of science

      • Evidence-based practices derived from science

      • Access to evidence-based mental health care focused on reducing psychological suffering and improving emotional well-being for all
