Professional Biography

Dr. Comer is Director of the Mental health Interventions and Novel Therapeutics (MINT) Program, and Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry at Florida International University. He is Editor-Elect for the journal Behavior Therapy, Past President of the Society of Clinical Psychology (Division 12 of the American Psychological Association), and a leader in the field of clinical child and adolescent psychology. He is the author of over 200 scholarly publications, including several textbooks, such as Abnormal Psychology (11th edition) and Fundamentals of Abnormal Psychology (10th edition).

Dr. Comer’s program of research examines child psychopathology and youth mental health care, placing central emphasis on the nature and family-based treatment of pediatric anxiety disorders, irritability, disruptive behavior problems, and traumatic stress. Much of Dr. Comer’s research focuses on telehealth and digital mental health strategies, as well as the broader role of technology and other non-traditional treatment formats for overcoming traditional barriers to care. This work examines novel strategies for expanding the scope, accessibility, acceptability, and responsivity of children’s mental health services. In addition, Dr. Comer studies the psychological impact of disasters, terrorism, and other public health crises on children and families. On this front, he serves as the Director of the Network for Enhancing Wellness in Disaster-Affected Youth (NEW DAY)–a SAMHSA-funded center that provides trauma-informed training and consultation to youth-serving professionals in disaster-prone and disaster-hit regions. 

Dr. Comer’s work has received current and past funding from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), and the American Psychological Foundation (APF), as well as from several private foundations and donors. Dr. Comer’s work has been recognized through the receipt of several early- and mid-career awards, including awards from the American Psychological Association, the Association for Psychological Science, the Society of Clinical Psychology, the Society for Child and Family Policy and Practice, the APA Committee on Children, Youth, and Families, the Society of Clinical Child and Adolescent Psychology, and the Association for Behavioral and Cognitive Therapies. Dr. Comer has been named one of FIU’s “Top Scholars.”

Dr. Comer received his B.A. from the University of Rochester, and went on to receive his M.A. and Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with a Concentration in Developmental Psychopathology from Temple University. Dr. Comer completed his clinical psychology internship training in the Child and Adolescent Track of the NYU-Bellevue Clinical Psychology Internship Program and the NYU Child Study Center, after which he completed an NIH-funded Postdoctoral Research Fellowship in Child Psychiatry at Columbia University, where he also served as Chief Research Fellow in the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. Before joining Florida International University, Dr. Comer served as Co-Director of Research in the Child Program of the Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders (CARD) of Boston University, where he directed the Early Childhood Interventions Program.
