My main research interests reside in the development of individual-level or public-level interventions to improve mental and physical health. In particular I am interested in the impact that chronic physical conditions such as diabetes have on young people, adults, and family members, and exploring ways to support psychosocial adjustment.

Animal-assisted interventions and art-based therapy and methodologies are also areas of interest to me. In future research I am also keen to explore public health issues such as vaccination hesitancy and eating behavior.
