Thank you for visiting my website. I am a Wellcome Early Career Award Fellow working to better understand the psychological mechanisms that contribute to anhedonia, or loss of pleasure, in those who experience psychosis and/or depression.
Bio
I am a Wellcome Early Career Award Fellow and a clinical psychologist at Kings College London. My work uses digital methods such as smartphone applications and virtual reality environments to explore emotional experience and understand what mechanisms may operate to reduce pleasure, a phenomenon called anhedonia.
I value working in and contributing to a positive, inclusive research culture and am aware that for people at an early career stage, particularly from communities or groups that are under-represented in academia or clinical psychology, it can be tricky to reach out. I want to say please do contact me here to discuss anything related to research or careers.

Qualitative research exploring the experiences of using digital interventions amongst people with psychosis is less well developed; however, such research is crucial in capturing the experiences of using digital interventions to ensure they are meeting the needs of people with psychosis. This paper aimed to synthesise qualitative data related to the experiences of people with psychosis who have used digital interventions.
