John Landsverk, Ph.D.

Dr. Landsverk has extensive and internationally-known research experience in the areas of child maltreatment and children's mental health in mental health services as well as in the implementation and evaluation of innovative early interventions for families at risk for child abuse and neglect. One recent project involved the development of a heuristic model for the dissemination, implementation, and maintenance of evidence-based, parent-mediated interventions in child welfare settings for treatment of disruptive disorders and externalizing behavior problems.
