Research & clinical interests

Dr. Mogil’s work focuses on developing effective interventions for children and families in high-stress environments, including families with abuse histories, military families and parents of critically ill infants. Using a translational research approach, Dr. Mogil has studied the implementation of these interventions in community settings and within systems of care. She has played a key role in examining and refining parent-assisted interventions for infants in neonatal intensive care, infants and toddlers in foster care, school-aged children with developmental disabilities, and adolescents with Autism Spectrum and other disorders. She is certified in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), and Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities.
