Bio/Research
Dr. Naomi Koerner (PhD, 2007, Concordia University) is a tenured Associate Professor of Psychology at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson). Her research interests are in the area of cognition and psychopathology with a specific focus on the ways in which concepts and methods from cognitive psychology can be used to inform and refine cognitive-behavioral theories and treatments for anxiety-related disorders, in particular generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Areas of interest include: the causal role of cognitive processes in worry and anxiety; mechanisms of action in exposure-based treatments, in particular imaginal exposure for GAD; and the development and testing of cognitive training procedures for anxiety psychopathology using proof-of-concept experiments. Dr. Koerner has been awarded highly competitive funding for her research from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research and from the Ontario Ministry of Research, Innovation and Science.
