Narrative

I currently work as a researcher on a number of different research programmes. One involves looking at a new therapy called ‘mentalization-based treatment’ for children who are in foster care. I am also employed as a ‘walking coach’ on a project aiming to help people to walk more after suffering a stroke. My clinical interests include: pain management, illness perceptions, adherence to medication, anxiety, depression, and promoting healthy behaviours.

Hobbies

I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, walking and playing netball.
