Research Description

Dr. Law is a member of Dr. Tonya Palermo's research lab at the Center for Child Health and Development at Seattle Children's Research Institute. Projects in Dr. Palermo's research lab include evaluating and testing a family-based cognitive-behavioral intervention delivered online for youth with chronic pain, as well as an intervention designed to teach problem solving skills to parents of youth with chronic pain. Dr. Law is interested in identifying the underlying mechanisms of these interventions to inform the development of more effective, tailored treatments for youth with chronic pain and their families.
