About

I am a registered Clinical Psychologist and a Lecturer in Psychology. I have completed my Ph.D. from the University of Birmingham. My research interests include aspects of Neuropsychological Rehabilitation, Clinical Psychology, Caregiving, and Teaching and Learning in Psychology. I also teach on several modules related to applied and clinical psychology.

Teaching responsibilities

I teach across a variety of Level 5 (2nd year) and Level 6 modules (3rd year); primarily in the areas of Biological Psychology, Psychopathology, and Clinical Applications of Psychology. I am the module leader for the Neuropsychology, a 3rd year BSc Psychology module.

Research interests

My Ph.D. looked into changes that occur within a marital relationship following a partner's brain injury, and how we can assess those changes, and what kind of intervention will benefit those partners. My general research interests include aspects of Neuropsychological Rehabilitation, Clinical Psychology, Caregiving, and Teaching and Learning in Psychology. To follow my current projects, kindly follow my Researchgate profile.
