Dr Rachel Teodorini

I am a Lecturer in Psychology. My first degree was a BSc (Hons) in herbal medicine. I have practiced herbal medicine since 2002. I later went on to study Psychology at LSBU. I graduated with a distinction, and was offered a fee-waiver PhD in psychopharmacology. My PhD focused on the off-prescription use of cognitive enhancing drugs. I have also worked on different projects, publishing and presenting at international conferences. I have worked as a Seminar Leader and lecturer since 2015, teaching topics like neuropsychology, the biological basis of extreme emotion, pain, and critical thinking to undergraduate and master’s students.
