Dr. Mark Harwood has research interests in the following areas:

1) Empirically-based models of patient-treatment matching,
2) Psychotherapy process and outcome,
3) Substance abuse treatment and prevalence (including the abuse of pharmacological substances among the elderly,
4) Depression and co-morbidity,
5) Psychotherapy training,
6) The Therapeutic alliance,
7) Minority access to mental health treatment, and
8) Predictors of attrition from substance abuse treatment.
