Gloria Aber
I am a master’s student in Clinical Psychology at Makerere University - Uganda, I’m writing my master’s thesis research focusing on contextualizing and validating the Flourishing Scale among Makerere University students. I embody a strong background in Mental Health and Psychosocial Support both in clinical and community setting. Whilst finalizing my master’s degree, I work with Victim’s Voice International - a Mental Health Outpatient Clinic in Northern Uganda as a research associate and therapist. In this regard, as key part of my work, have the opportunity to support the Traumafit Project back in Uganda. Within this project, I aim to investigate predictors of treatment outcome and to explore experiences of service users and service providers of Problem Management Plus, and Narrative Exposure Therapy and in the long-run determine who fits well with either of the interventions.

Research Interests
My main research interest explores personalization of psychological assessments and treatments, specifically investigating the individual predictors for effective outcome in treating posttraumatic stress disorder through exploring individual experiences and perceived outcome among service users and service providers especially in war affected low-resource settings.
