Mitt forskningsfelt er i hovedsak tilknyttet helsefremming og helsepsykologi innen fagområdet alvorlig somatisk sykdom. Min forskning er i hovedsak knyttet til ulike psykososiale konsekvenser av kreftsykdom gjennom hele sykdomsforløpet både for pasienter og pårørende (vokse og barn). 

Arbeidet med formilding følger parallelt med min forskning både på konferanser i inn og utland, foredrag på ulike universiteter og høgskoler, samt formidling til pasienter/pårørende og allmennheten.

I tillegg til inviterte foredrag utenfor universitetet, deltar jeg med undervising på master i krisepsykologi, der jeg i hovedsak underviser på EVU emnet kurset 'Barn som pårørende', metode og veiledning på master - og hovedfagsoppgaver på profesjonsstudiet.
