BIOGRAPHY

I am a clinical psychologist, researcher, and lecturer, with a niche interest in clinical child psychology and pediatrics psychology. I have been working with children, adolescents, and their parents with psychological issues using psychotherapy, mainly cognitive behavioural and/ or person-centered approaches. I am actively researching and publishing papers and sharing information on these populations with the community.

RESEARCH INTERESTS

My research interest focuses on the assessment and management of psychological problems, among children and young adults, especially those with chronic illnesses such as cancer or those having difficult life challenges. I developed localized psychological interventions to improve coping among these patients and their caregivers. I supervise clinical psychology trainees and am open to accepting research students working on related areas.
