Dr J. Krans (Julie)

I am an associate professor (UHD) at the department of clinical psychology and the Behavioural Science Institute (research programme Experimental Psychopathology & Treatment). My research area is schema therapy and imagery rescripting. I investigate both the effectiveness of treatment (mainly for anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorder) and working mechanisms. I teach on symptom-focused treatment and schema therapy and I supervise research projects in the clinical master. I am also the associate director of the Behavioural Science Institute. In addition to my position as UHD, I am a senior researcher at Pro Persona Overwaal, an expertise centre for anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and PTSD. I am trained as a behavioural therapist at the VVGT.
