College of Education, Behavioural and Social Science

I am currently completing a combined Doctor of Philosophy/Master of Psychology (Clinical) program under the supervision of Dr Ian Zajac, Associate Professor Simon Rice, and Dr Lynn Ward, in partnership with the CSIRO at SAHMRI. I am broadly interested in research and practice relating to lifespan development, mood and anxiety disorders, men's health, and ageing. My PhD is exploring how depressive symptomology differs for men and women across the lifespan, with a particular focus on improving our understanding and assessment of depressive symptomology in older men.

I am a Senior Clinical Psychologist at Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (CAMHS) Eating Disorder Service. My research interests relate to child and adolescent mental health, developmental psychology, ageing, eating disorders and, men's mental health.
