Associate Professor in Clinical Psychology. 

I am one of the Research Tutors on the DClinPsy, and also support the MSc in Clinical Psychology and Clinical Associate Psychologist programmes. 

My main interests concern people with intellectual disabilities and other neurodevelopmental conditions. I have broad interests in the psychological well being of this group, with a particular interest in attachment theory.  I have supervised several DClinPsy research theses to completion on a range of topics and using both qualitative and quantitative methods.  

I am an experienced Consultant Clinical Psychologist and previously acted as clinical lead within services for people with intellectual disabilities in Plymouth. I retain an honorary contract with Livewell Southwest (CIC) and I am clinically active with the Plymouth Community Learning Disabilities Team.
