I am a Lecturer in Psychology of Education in the Manchester Institute of Education (MIE) at The University of Manchester, and an Honorary Researcher at the Evidence Based Practice Unit (a collaboration between University College London and the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families). My research interests are generally centred around child and adolescent mental health and wellbeing. I am particularly focused on risk and resilience processes in this context - that is, who is at risk of experiencing mental health symptoms, and why, alongside what factors and processes may mitigate such vulnerabilities.
