I have a particular interest in the role psychology plays in women's health and care. 

I completed my PhD in the School of Psychology which was part of a large randomised controlled trial undertaken at the Women’s and Children’s Hospital in South Australia. My PhD is examined women’s psychosocial outcomes after receiving CTG or ST-Analysis fetal monitoring during labour.
