About

I am a full time PhD student here at the University of Derby. I am currently exploring the experience of parents when they are delivering behavioural interventions in the home with their child who has a diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder. My research interests lie within Child Psychology, Child Development and Educational Psychology.

I have been at the University of Derby since 2016, where I studied and graduated at both undergraduate and master’s level, and I then began my PhD journey in 2020.

Thesis title 

An exploration into the lived experiences of parents implementing behavioural interventions to children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
