Biography
As Psychology Clinic Director, I aim to provide high quality training to postrgraduate students in clinical psychology, as well as high quality clinical services to our surrounding community. I aim to instill students with a respect for evidence-based approaches to clinical work. I attempt to illustrate theory with clinical anecdotes and practical applications, as I believe that this fosters deeper learning. My research interests include: psychosis, particularly early intervention and management of ultra high risk; modification of risk factors for comorbid physical and mental health problems; stigma; sexual identity development; and working alliance.
