Personal profile
Overview
I am a Senior Lecturer in the Division of Psychology, School of Applied Sciences and specialise in the field of mental health. My lectures are based around various clinical and mental health aspects of the BSc and MSc courses. I am currently the Head of the Division of Psychology.
Research Interests
My research has focused primarily on the metacognitive processes involved in self-critical rumination, which explores the beliefs that we hold about our own internal self-critic. This has involved developing an understanding of the justifications that we use for beating ourselves up upon making a mistake and identifying the role that the belief that such thoughts are uncontrollable play on levels of self-esteem.
