About me

  • Hi! Welcome to his page. I am an assistant senior lecturer at the Centre for Psychiatry Research and Centre for Education &
  • Research at Karolinska Institute (KI). Employed full-time since april, 2019. Most of my time is devoted to course development at advanced level, teaching and supervision at advanced level for doctors and psychologist in specialist training in psychotherapy, psychological interventions, research design, evaluation and statistics.

    I am also involved in the supervision and examination of students at an advance level on the psychotherapy program at KI. In the current position around 20%, is devoted to development of psychological treatment, implementation and quality assurance in routine care, coordination of systematic evaluation of care and collaboration with researchers at Karolinska institute, Stockholm University and some contact with Child Study Center, Department of Psychology, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg (US). For interest in the research I'm involved in, see section on "research interest".

Research

  • Dr. Reuterskiöld has been involved in the planning and implementation of several randomized-controlled studies on children and adolescents with anxiety disorders and their parents, at the psychology department, Stockholm University and both face-to face treatments and ICBT (internet Cognitive Behavior Therapy) for children with dental anxiety, at KI.

    I have been involved in an RCT-study using Virtual Reality Exposure Therapy (VRET) for spider phobics where VRET was pitched against a gold standard One-Session-Treatment (OST), at the psychology department, Stockholm University.

    I am currently principal investigator in a clinical trial in primary care, Region Stockholm, where we are testing feasibility, acceptability and effect of a transdiagnostic CBT group treatment for children and adolescents with anxiety disorders and depression and their parents.

    Another research area of interest is education of staff in psychiatric inpatient care in a manualized CBT/ACT treatment coupled with supervision, testing and implementing this treatment in routine care for patients with severe psychiatric conditions. This is an ongoing collaboration project at KI and Region Stockholm.

    The most recent research area I am involved in focuses on young children with severe behavioral problems and their parents. Main objective is to investigate if an abbreviated intervention, parent-child child interaction therapy, delivered via the internet (iPCIT) is feasible and can reduce externalizing behaviors, internalizing symptoms and improve parent-child interaction. This is an ongoing collaboration project.

    I have co-supervised two doctoral students. One is now a post-doc and the other holds a position as a lecturer, has funding and PhD students.
