Johanna Thompson-Hollands, PhD is an Assistant Professor of Psychiatry at the Chobanian and Avedisian School of Medicine. She completed her Doctoral training at Boston University under the mentorship of David Barlow. At BU Dr. Thompson-Hollands was heavily involved in the testing and refinement of the Unified Protocol for Transdiagnostic Treatment of Emotional Disorders. In addition to contributing to this line of work, she also wrote and was awarded an F31 to develop and test a brief intervention for the family members of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, with the goal of enhancing patients' treatment outcomes. Following her graduate work, she transitioned to working in the VA system, first as a predoctoral intern and later as a research fellow and finally a Staff Research Psychologist in the National Center for PTSD at VA Boston Healthcare System. Her work continues to focus on treatment development and outcome, with a particular emphasis on the role of family and other social supports in enhancing outcomes and retention in PTSD treatment.
