The University of Winnipeg’s HEART Lab

HIV, Empowerment, Affect Regulation, and Trauma Laboratory

Spearheaded by Dr. Bev Fredborg, Assistant Professor at the University of Winnipeg (and Clinical Psychologist registered in Ontario), we are focused on research related to improving mental health outcomes for individuals with severe psychopathology, as well as improving treatment outcomes for people living with HIV in Manitoba.

Basic Research Arm

Our laboratory is focused on understanding emotion regulation processes and how these might go awry in individuals with severe psychopathology.

Applied Research Arm

We are interested in (1) applying basic research knowledge to enhance treatment for individuals with severe psychopathology and (2) using community-based participatory action research principles to support people living with HIV in Manitoba.
