About Marie Matérne

Marie is an Associate Professor in Social Work (2023) and a licensed healthcare counselor. She earned her PhD in Disability Science with a dissertation on return to work after acquired brain injury (2018).

Research

Marie Matérne's research involves individuals with disabilities from an interdisciplinary perspective. Below are some of Marie’s research projects:

• Rehabilitation for women with traumatic brain injury in collaboration with researchers in Sydney, Australia. Focus groups have been conducted, analyses are ongoing, and a scoping review is also being carried out. These studies serve as a foundation, and together with affected women, a rehabilitation program will be developed.
• Individuals affected by stroke; aspects of quality of life and resilience. The results indicate that people with stroke do not accept their disability but adapt their lives accordingly. The healthcare counselor plays an important role in rehabilitation.
• Quality of care for individuals with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities. Since these individuals have difficulties communicating, ensuring quality care is crucial. Several interview studies have been conducted, and a doctoral student has now been admitted to develop an instrument for measuring care quality.
• Professional research on the role and research development of healthcare counselors.

Marie collaborates with national and international researchers and has conducted a research exchange in Sydney, Australia (2024).

Teaching

Marie primarily teaches in the Healthcare Counseling Program. She is responsible for courses on thesis writing and scientific theory within the program. Additionally, she teaches continuing education courses for healthcare counselors in Dalarna.
