About

I am an Associate Professor in Psychology, with specialism in child/adolescent mental health, at Kingston University London. I am passionate to foster partnerships with young people, health charities, and industry to bring science in practice, and I am able to achieve this in my role as School civic partnership and knowledge exchange lead. I have 12 years of teaching experience in child/adolescent and adult mental health, clinical psychology, and health psychology at undergraduate and postgraduate level. I have extended my interest in studying individuals who suffer from different types of cancers, and this work has been possible through my collaboration with Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust. I am an Associate Fellow and Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society, and elected Senior Fellow by the Higher Education Academy.
