About

I am a registered Chartered Health Psychologist with the British Psychological Society (BPS), with a PhD in cognitive psychology. My academic interests are broad and include psychophysiology (interoception and vagal functioning), categorization models of cognition, data visualization, psychological therapies such as acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), the impact of therapy in society, and more recently how to utilize artificial intelligence (AI) to identify predictors for ill health, which will allow for early interventions to be developed.

These interventions are intended to provide a cost reduction to the NHS. I have also developed several policy briefs for Welsh Government and in conjunction with the NHS in the area of health and AI. Finally, I have recently co-edited a textbook with SAGE called ‘The Textbook of Health and Social Care’.

Taught Modules

PPS211 Psychology of Health and Illness

This module will build on knowledge gained at level 4 to develop a more in depth understanding of the role of psychology in health and illness. The module will be evidence based and utilize key theoretical and applied health psychology literature and expertise and will provide an enhanced knowledge and understanding of the role of psychology in health and illness.
PPS304 Psychology and the Promotion of Wellbeing

This module will draw on evidence from health psychology and health promotion literature to develop an understanding of how both disciplines contribute to understanding and promoting wellbeing.
SHHM18 Quantitative Research Methods

This module provides an introduction to a range of quantitative research methods used in the social sciences. Students will learn about the theoretical underpinnings and pragmatic issues relating to the conduct of primary research and secondary analysis of existing data. They will also gain practical experience of undertaking various research tasks at key stages in the research process. The module offers variety, diversity and depth of understanding while focusing on social science perspectives in the field of health services research.
