As a senior associate professor at the Department of Social Work, I lead our research program on Vulnerable Adults. Udsatte voksne — Københavns Professionshøjskole (kp.dk)
In this program, we engage in research on social work for persons in vulnerable social positions. My own research within this context focuses on social work, rehabilitation, Supported Employment / Individual Placement and Support (IPS), and citizen involvement, with a specific emphasis on people with mental health problems and disabilities.
My research background stems from my Ph.D. in Political Science at the University of Copenhagen, where I explored Danish disability policy and the Danish disability movement. Subsequently, my research has concentrated on social interventions and rehabilitation for persons with mental health problems or disabilities. In recent years, I have placed particular emphasis on the 'Individual Placement and Support – IPS' method, leading an implementation study of IPS in Denmark.
Since 2019, I have been heading the Reconnect project, collaborating with colleagues at UCC, The Danish Center for Social Science Research, and Roskilde University to test an adapted IPS model for young people experiencing mental distress in three municipalities. I utilize qualitative methods and have experience involving citizens with mental health problems as co-researcher, through participatory methods.
