About Louise Danielsson

I am a mental health physiotherapist with a clinical background in primary health care, psychiatry, and pain rehabilitation. My research investigates exercise and body awareness therapy for people with depression, and work-related rehabilitation in common mental disorders. I have conducted qualitative studies, randomized controlled trials and psychometric studies (item response theory). Social interaction, embodiment and person-centered rehabilitation are subjects of great interest to me in clinical practice, teaching and research.

I am part of the research group Health, sickness absence and return to work – TIDAS https://www.gu.se/forskning/tidas
