Jessica Hawks, PhD

For Patients:
My research interests are primarily focused on evaluating how to better assess and treat the underlying factors that influence pediatric behavioral health difficulties.

For Referring Providers:
Central to my research interests are variables related to the development, display, and modification of disruptive behavior problems exhibited by children. I am particularly interested in studying proximal and distal associated risk factors and in establishing prevention strategies for such problems in childhood. My research lab at Children's Hospital Colorado has focused primarily on empirically evaluating the utility of a transdiagnostic approach to the assessment and treatment of pediatric behavioral health difficulties.
