Dr. Haworth’s research interests include anhedonia treatment mechanisms, therapy homework dynamics, and functional neuroimaging correlates of psychological interventions. Though he does not run a research lab or serve as primary adviser, he contributes as a clinical supervisor and research committee member. His work bridges therapeutic techniques with empirical evidence, emphasizing practical clinical training.

Key contributions include randomized trials comparing behavioral activation and mindfulness-based cognitive therapy for anhedonia, neuroimaging studies on default-mode network connectivity, and component-process analyses of social connection in psychotherapy. His scholarship addresses both clinical outcomes and underlying neurobiological mechanisms.
