The research field of my Associate Professor (tenure track) position includes the basic processes underlying psychological well-being interventions and behavioral changes. I am a docent (Adjunct Professor) of clinical psychology, especially interaction research, as well as a special psychologist of work and organisational psychology. My research interests are in embodied processes of social interaction between multiple actors in clinical and consulting contexts, which I study by using multimodal and mixed methods approaches. I lead the Relational Mind research group, the PhinGAIN consortium project of the Universities of Jyväskylä and Oulu, and the Finnish team in the international Work Addiction study. Moreover, I lead the Embodied Eureka research society, which we have founded with colleagues interested in interpersonal synchrony and reorganization of verbal and nonverbal experience in therapeutic interventions.
