Personal profile

Particulars

My research focuses on 'at risk' populations and marginalised groups. I focus on child, adolescent and adult populations who experience/have experienced adversity. I am particularly interested in domestic and sexual abuse and the impact on familial and child outcomes.

I am also interested in the design, implementation and evaluation of psychosocial interventions aimed at improving outcomes for children and young people. I am experienced in both quantitative and qualitative methodologies, and have worked on a range of evaluations aimed at improving the psychological, social, cognitive and educational outcomes for both parents and children.
