I have a strong interest in social developmental psychology and in research methods. I am currently working towards a PhD which focuses on experiences of receiving bereavement support - something which I became very interested in after volunteering with a local charity as a bereavement support worker.
I currently lead on the following modules:
- HLLP4001 - Introduction to research methods
- HLLP5010 - Social and community psychology
- HLLP6013 - Critical psychology
- HLLP6015 - Dissertation
- HLLP7061 - Environmental psychology
