Personal profile
Biography
I hold a dual role as a Research Fellow at the eCentreClinic, within the School of Psychological Sciences, and as a Clinical Psychologist with the Sydney Children's Hospital Network.
I collaborate with research teams in the UK and US and with the SCH departments of Pain and Palliative Care, and Gastroenterology as an honorary researcher. Prior to Macquarie University, I completed a Postdoctoral Fellowship at Seattle Children’s Research Institute in Washington, USA, and worked clinically in Australia in both public hospitals and private settings.
Research interests
I lead a program of applied clinical research focused on understanding impacts of mental and physical health comorbidities at critical points during childhood development, and improving access to psychological care for children, adolescents, and young adults with chronic health conditions.
I am particularly interested in the development and delivery of remote or digital psychological interventions which are accessible, acceptable, and cost-effective additions to existing face-to-face models of psychological care.
Research student supervision
I supervise Honours, Masters, and PhD students on projects related to clinical health psychology and digital psychological treatment for adolescents and young adults.
Examples of student projects:
- Internet-Delivered Psychological Program for Young Adults with Chronic Health Conditions
- Cognitive functioning in university students with chronic pain
- Digital psychological interventions in youth with neurological conditions
- Associations between anxiety and depression and pain-related outcomes in adolescents and young adults
- Efficacy of a pain management intervention for adults with chronic pain and comorbid clinical anxiety and depression
- Parental verbal and nonverbal incongruence in paediatric health-contexts
- Pain vigilance and awareness in youth with chronic conditions
- Efficacy of a transdiagnostic iCBT pain management program for adults with chronic headache
Teaching
I currently provide guest lectures for Masters of Clinical Psychology and Masters of Professional Psychology programs on the following topics: eMentalHealth, Health Psychology, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Chronic Pain in Children and Adolescents.
