Associate Professor Leah Brennan is a clinical, health, educational and developmental psychologist. Her research focuses on the role of psychology in understanding and treating eating, weight and body image concerns and their biopsychosocial comorbidities (e.g., diabetes, depression, stigma). Her research uses various research designs including systematic reviews and meta analyses, randomised control trials, service evaluation and quality assurance, single case experiment, scale development, cross sectional, and qualitative research designs. She is particularly interested in developing and/or evaluating evidence based interventions, conducting intervention trials (including efficacy, effectiveness, implementation) and evaluating the effectiveness of real-world treatment programs.
