Child and Adolescent Mental Health Lead<\/em><\/p>\n Professor Vanessa Cobham is a Clinical Psychologist and a Professor, with continuing appointments in both Children\u2019s Health Queensland\u2019s Child and Youth Mental Health Service and The University of Queensland. CI Cobham’s research has focused on improving our understanding of the ways in which anxiety and depressive mental health conditions develop; the development and evaluation of models of care and interventions for the treatment of these conditions; understanding the intersection between physical and mental health conditions; and bridging the evidence-practice divide that exists in child and youth mental health. The core of CI Cobham\u2019s work is the translation of research findings into interventions and clinical resources that are used by mental health practitioners. Their research has been cited within government policy documents and national guidelines in both Australia and the UK, and they have been invited to lead major governmental responses to post-disaster mental health needs of children and adolescents; to provide expert consultation to governments around the world following community disasters; and to develop resources for clinicians, children and adolescents and parents.<\/p>\n
