Research Interests

Among my current research interests are investigations of the efficacy of different therapies and combinations of treatment for chronic depression. Along with several colleagues here at Stanford and across the country, I have been involved in two large clinical trials investigating the efficacy of antidepressant medication, psychotherapy and their combination. The most recent trial will continue to enroll patients until early 2006. This investigation compares, among chronically depressed partial and nonresponders to an initial trial of medication, the efficacy of: 1) medication switching alone; 2) medication switching plus brief supportive psychotherapy; 3) medication switching plus cognitive behavioral analysis system of psychotherapy. Other areas of interest include the epidemiology of chronic pain and depression, and relationships among child maltreatment, adult health and psychiatric outcomes and use of health care services. Finally, along with an interdisciplinary team here at Stanford, we have been investigating the relationship between brain activation and sexual response in men and women.
