For fun and comfort, I enjoy indulging in artsy and homey activities, such as drawing, painting, knitting, crocheting, crafting, baking, and more!

In our stress-laden contemporary society, I believe that mental good health necessitates effort in carving out. I particularly enjoy unwinding with a cup of coffee on hand, chatting with loved one(s) and watching the world go by as I distance myself from the hustle and bustle of our daily grind.

Broadly, my research interests include adverse childhood experiences and its effects on later-life psychological vulnerabilities. I am passionate about trans-diagnostic approaches to therapy and supporting clients holistically.

To recharge, I enjoy hiking with my dog, travelling and trying new cafes around the island!

When I am not studying/working, I will probably be found watching a slice-of-life television series, having a good laugh with loved ones, cooking food or attempting to learn foreign languages.

My broad interests are in understanding and addressing the impact of early traumatic and adverse experiences on youth and young adults, and how risks and protective factors lead to offending behaviours and mental health issues.

In my free time, I enjoy running and exercising, watching movies, and travelling.

My current research interest generally lies in psychopathology in adults and older adults. I am also interested in therapeutic interventions and systemic structures that can support the mental health needs of our communities.

In my free time, I find solace in taking long, leisurely runs around my neighbourhood. I also harbour an unbridled love for good green bean soup. 

I was an associate psychologist who worked with male youth offenders in the community and in a juvenile residential setting, and subsequently with female youths who had experienced abuse in a residential setting. My experience working with these clients cemented my decision to pursue clinical psychology. In terms of research interests, they broadly involve adverse early childhood experiences, attachment styles, and emotional regulation. I recharge by taking long walks with my corgis, staying active, and enjoying cake. 

It has been a long-standing goal of mine to work as a child psychologist. However, through my studies and various work and life experiences, I have also developed an interest in working with youth and young adults. I believe that access to mental health services should not be a privilege and I hope to be where the need is.  

I am generally interested in work involving childhood trauma and how it impacts the young adult. Prior to my Masters, I worked with children with mild to severe autism in both private and school settings. 

I enjoy going to the gym and also crafty activities like crocheting. I also enjoy listening to music and playing the piano. 

My research interests broadly revolve around mood and anxiety disorders, personality disorders, third-wave psychotherapies, and the mental health needs of vulnerable groups.

Outside of my professional life, I find joy in drawing, travelling, and watching movies and plays. I also try (occasionally with great effort) to stay active through swimming and going to the gym.

I am particularly interested in researching how familial and psychosocial factors influence psychopathology in children and youth as well as exploring transdiagnostic approaches to mental health work. Spending time with loved ones and documenting memories through film photography are some ways that I stay recharged.

In my previous career, I practised as a family lawyer where I represented clients in many high conflict child custody cases. These often involved working closely with Court ordered psychologists for the children’s best interests which drew me to a career in clinical psychology. In particular, the developmental pathways to mental health challenges and helping individuals overcome traumatic experiences to achieve optimal psychological well-being. I recharge my batteries through hot yoga and forcing my dog on long walks with me.

After completing my Masters in Clinical Neurodevelopmental Sciences from King’s College London, I worked as a Psychologist in a social service organization for adults with Intellectual Disability and other neurodevelopmental conditions. Motivated by the passion to serve this population, I provided direct psychological services to address their emotional, behavioral and learning needs. I then moved on to work with preschool children with learning difficulties at a private developmental clinic in order to gain exposure working with a different population. My research interests broadly include mental health conditions in the special needs population and the effective adaptation of therapy for them. Outside of work and study, I enjoy scrapbooking and hunting for cute soft toys form all over the world.
