United Kingdom
I am a Professor in Clinical Psychology and the Health and Head of the Virtual Reality Research Lab, I am also a Hon. Consultant Clinical Psychologist at the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust. I am a Visiting Professor at KU Leuven and the Past-President of IEPA Early Intervention in Mental Health.
Research
My research has been in two areas; Early Intervention and Virtual Reality (VR) applied to mental health. I am committed to research that is clinically relevant and directly applicable to the delivery of clinical services and have directly integrated my research and clinical endeavours throughout my career. My work has focused on the prevention and early detection of mental health problems, in particular psychosis. I have extensive experience in service implementation in the community and I set up the first service for prevention and early detection of psychosis in a prison setting.
I lead the IoPPN Virtual Reality Research Lab (VR Lab), an interdisciplinary group of clinical academics, clinicians, neuroscientists, post-doctoral researchers working alongside a VR developer and industry partners. We conduct studies in psychosis, eating disorders, depression, autism, epidemiology, discrimination, prevention, and early intervention.
Education
I contribute to all aspects of the Doctorate in Clinical Psychology programme (teaching, team meetings, research supervision, appraising students, marking, etc), in addition I am also a Research Tutor and the Head of Selection.
