Research
Maretha strongly believes in the benefits of integrating research and clinical work. Research underpins evidence-based practice, while clinical practice fuels research. Her research focuses on behaviour and cognition of children/adolescents with autism spectrum disorders or selective mutism. She developed the cognitive behavioural intervention “Spreekt voor zich” for young children with selective mutism.
