Biography
I joined the section of Clinical and Health Psychology in June 2015. I am Programme Director for the MSc Children and Young People's Mental Health and Psychological Practice programme and Senior Tutor for the School of Health in Social Science. I contribute to teaching across a range of programmes at undergraduate and postgraduate level, mainly in the areas of attachment and developmental theory. Previously I was Senior Lecturer at Queen Margaret University Edinburgh from 2002- 2015. There, the focus of my teaching was on developmental psychology, atypical development and emotion regulation. I gained an MA in Psychology and PhD in Applied Developmental Psychology from the University of Edinburgh. My PhD was focused on collaborative learning in children with Down syndrome and other learning disabilities and was funded by the Down Syndrome Association of Scotland. I am a Chartered Psychologist and Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society.
