MBC Fidelity through Observational Coding, Usage data, and Self-reports (MBC-FOCUS).
This project utilizes existing data from the COMET study to identify which measurement-based care (MBC) practices are most important for engaging MBC mechanisms and outcomes. To achieve study aims, a multi-method (digital MBC system usage data, self-report, observer-report) and multi-informant (clinician, observer) measurement approach will be used to rigorously assemble and evaluate the entire continuum of MBC fidelity practice domains.
Kristi House C-START Evaluation
This project is a program evaluation of an ongoing "community-based learning collaborative" aimed at improving the level of evidence-based, trauma-informed, culturally competent care for child victims of sexual abuse and children with sexual behavior problems in Miami Dade/Monroe counties.

Advancing trauma treatment through the integration of Trauma-Focused CBT and measurement-based care (TF-CBT + MBC)
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is an effective intervention for youth trauma, yet clinicians face challenges making the clinical decisions needed to use it. Measurement-based care (MBC), or the use of frequent assessments throughout treatment, is a tool to potentially support clinical decision-making in TF-CBT. However, MBC on its own is rarely used with fidelity by clinicians; tying it more clearly to interventions such as TF-CBT could increase its utility for clinicians. This study will gather data to develop a combined approach to TF-CBT with MBC and associated implementation supports. The study will generate data on barriers and facilitators of MBC use, provider, supervisor, client, and caregiver perspectives on what TF-CBT with MBC should look like, and what implementation supports are needed to use it successfully.

Personalized Assessment of Client Experiences (PACE) - Completed
This study compared two different approaches to measurement-based care to learn more about how to best implement this evidence-based practice to maximize clinician preferences and client outcomes. This project took place in community mental health clinics in Tennessee.
