Karen Bearss, PhD
Personal Statement
My work focuses on parenting interventions for children with autism spectrum disorder and co-occurring disruptive behaviors, as well as the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based treatments into community mental health centers. At UW, I work at the Seattle Children’s Autism Center where I am involved in the implementation of evidence-based parenting interventions for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Clinical pursuits include overseeing multidisciplinary evaluations for young children with ASD and related disorders.
