Jennifer Freeman, Ph.D. is the director of the Pediatric Anxiety Research Center at Bradley Hospital. She is also a professor (research) of Psychiatry and Human Behavior at The Warren Alpert Medical School of Brown University, associate director of the Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Program in the Clinical Psychology Training Program at Brown Medical School, and associate director of research at Bradley Hospital. Dr. Freeman received her B.A. from Wesleyan University. She completed her doctoral training at the State University of New York at Buffalo, completed a predoctoral internship at the Brown University Clinical Psychology Training Program, and was an NIMH T-32 postdoctoral fellow in child and pediatric psychology at The Warren Alpert Medical School at Brown University. Dr. Freeman is deeply committed to the mission of combining research, clinical service, and multidisciplinary training at PARC. She has a long history of mentoring and teaching within Brown’s Clinical Psychology Internship and Fellowship programs. She has received extensive funding from NIH and PCORI for her research in the assessment and treatment of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and anxiety disorders in children and adolescents. Recent studies aim to reduce barriers to effective care for youth and families and to develop new service models that provide high-quality, evidence-based care outside the office. Along with a talented, collaborative, and ever-growing team, she has led PARC to become a national model for the true integration of active research and training within a busy clinical service line.  Outside of work, Dr. Freeman enjoys spending time with her family, running outdoors year-round, and taking far too many photos of her golden retriever.
