Sarah Danzo, PhD
My research broadly aims to better understand the etiology of depression and associated risk behaviors such as substance use and suicide across development, and translate findings to inform prevention and intervention strategies for youth and families. Additionally, my work focuses on partnering with communities to improve access to and use of effective mental health services within widely accessed settings such as in primary care.
My current projects include studies focused on adapting a suicide prevention program for use with adolescents and their families in primary care (PIs Chang, Danzo), as well as adapting a depression intervention for digital delivery to expand access to adolescent depression care by non-specialists (PIs Richardson, Jenness).
In addition to research, I am also a psychologist in the Mood and Anxiety Disorders Program at Seattle Children’s Hospital.
