PhD studentResearch Overview
My research focuses on understanding the psychological processes involved in recognising, interpreting, and responding to emotional distress. I am particularly interested in how early psychological processes contribute to patterns of self-regulation, help-seeking, and emotional understanding across the lifespan. My work integrates psychological theory with applied mental health and public health research.
