Sophie Blackmore

Sophie is a research assistant focusing on Indigenous youth and mental health projects. Her interest in Indigenous and cross-cultural mental health began following an opportunity to teach culturally relevant health education to students in Salluit, Nunavik. Following this, she pursued several relevant research and work opportunities, including work assessing suicide crisis lines for Indigenous communities in Canada, working with the Nicotine Dependence Clinic at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH), and research projects on psychosis risk for migrant populations and assessing trauma symptoms in various ethnic and diagnostic subgroups in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In her free time, Sophie enjoys exploring new restaurants and relaxing with a good cup of tea and an even better book.
