I am a Senior Lecturer and Health Psychologist at the University of Birmingham (UK) based in the School of Psychology.

 My research focuses on cognition and behaviour in the context of health. Recently this has focused on help-seeking behaviour, behaviour change and survivorship.

My work has advanced knowledge of how beliefs around illness, perceptions of risk, and social factors predict timelines of help-seeking behaviours, influence returning to work following illnesss and impact on short and long term adaptation.
