About David

Professor David Hawes is Professor of Clinical Psychology in the School of Psychology at the University of Sydney. He is a clinical psychologist and academic who co-directs the University of Sydney Child Behaviour Research Clinic, a service providing assessment and evidence-based treatments for child disruptive behaviour disorders. His research specializations encompass child and adolescent mental health, with a focus on conduct problems, disruptive behaviour disorders, callous-unemotional traits, emotion dysregulation, parenting practices and their influence on child executive function, family-based interventions, the role of time-out discipline strategies, and the developmental timing and impact of adverse childhood experiences. Hawes leads efforts in clinical trials and competency frameworks for treating these conditions, often collaborating with researchers such as Mark Dadds.
