Bio

Dr.  Katina Lambros, PhD, BCBA-D, is an Associate Professor at San Diego State University in the Department of Counseling and School Psychology. She is a School Psychologist and a Board Certified Behavior Analyst specializing in ecobehavioral assessment-intervention for academic and socio-emotional problems in school-aged populations.  

Dr. Lambros directs Project BEAMS-Behavioral, Emotional and Mental Health Supports in Schools: Collaborative Practices to Improve Special Educator & School Psychologist Training, a 5-year $1.25 million dollar grant funded by the Office of Special Education. This project  co-trains school psychologists and special educators to serve diverse students with behavioral, emotional, and mental health challenges in California's public schools. She also serves as the VCS of the approved BCBA course sequence in school psychology (sequence #4487).  

Dr. Lambros’s research to date focuses on three broad areas: (1) improving mental health services and positive behavioral support in schools with an emphasis on students with emotional and behavioral difficulties; (2) promoting the use of evidence-based practices and data-based decision making in schools; and (3) increasing access to school-based service use and culturally responsive services for diverse learners.
