Refugee mental health, mindfulness, self-compassion, clinical research combining qualitative and quantitative methods, eating disorders, hypnosis, psychiatry

Ingrid Dundas was born in 1958, has three children and has a Ph.D from the University of Bergen, Norway and where she has been employed since 1993. She is a specialist in Clinical psychology and currently associate professor at the Department of Clinical Psychology. She has worked for many years as a clinical supervisor for psychology students, as well as course-coordinator for master theses of the psychology program. She has been the manager for the outpatient clinic for adults and the elderly at IKP in two periods. Her theoretical orientation is integrative, and she aims to assist students in becoming proficient in a wide range of clinical topics, becoming generalists and then specialists. In line with her integrative and generalist approach, she has completed several years of continuing education in psychodynamic therapies at the Department of Psychotherapy in Oslo (introductory and advanced seminar), as well as trainings within a number of the established and evidence-based mindfulness- and self-compassion programs.

Over the years she has been principal investigator for five large and small research projects where psychological interventions have been implemented and examined, including CBT, self-hypnosis and mindfulness-based / self-compassion based interventions. She has supervised approx. 56 master theses (approx. 107 students) and co-supervised three doctoral theses. Her publications are both quantitative and qualitative. In recent years she has collaborated with Bergen Municipality, Center for Migration Health (SEMI) to implement and test low-threshold interventions for newly arrived refugees in Bergen. She is currently working on developing a longitudinal study of the implementation and effectiveness of the low-threshold Program Management Plus (PM +) developed by the World Health Organization, in collaboration with SEMI and colleagues in Bergen. She is also working on a long-term follow-up of a low-threshold intervention for overeating disorders implemented by a national self-help organization: Counseling for Eating Disorders (ROS) in collaboration with Modum Bad, Oslo.
