Andrea Howard
Professor, Department of Psychology at Carleton University

EmailAndrea.Howard@carleton.ca

Howard is available to discuss mental health and the transition to university. The first year of university is a significant time of transition as students navigate a broad range of new academic choices, expectations and social groups, and many students move away from home. These changes may present new challenges for previously well-functioning, high-achieving students.

Howard’s research primarily examines mental health, including depression and anxiety, and the use of alcohol, cannabis, tobacco and other drugs during adolescence and into adulthood. She is also interested in the challenges facing parents during this time, and the impact of social media use.
