Additionally, she is a qualified Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP), supporting parents in applying CBT tools to help their children.
Her research interests include child mental health, CBT implementation in clinical settings, and parent-led therapy. She currently leads the implementation of an online CBT intervention for child anxiety within routine mental health services. Recent publications highlight her contributions to child anxiety treatment access, OCD intervention efficacy, and qualitative insights into parental experiences.
Her work has contributed to studies such as the ChAAMPS intervention for autistic children, recognized as a finalist in the 2025 Made With Patients Awards. While no individual scientific awards are explicitly mentioned, her collaborative efforts reflect significant contributions to translational research in mental health.
