She is currently serving as the President of the international Society for Interpersonal Theory and Research.

Her primary research interests focus on how personality pathology and interpersonal functioning impact diagnosis, psychotherapy process, and treatment outcome. Her recent work has focused on examining how effortful control, rejection sensitivity, interpersonal problems, and impulsivity impact maladaptive outcomes, such as suicidality.

The 12th annual Yale NEA-BPD conference addressed advances in assessment and treatment of individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder who struggle with suicidality, as well as resources for providers working with suicidal individuals. The conference addressed assessment and interventions aimed at individuals and families, as well as consumer and family member perspectives.
