Profile
I am a psychologist and interdisciplinary researcher. My work is focused on gender based violence, and particularly childhood experiences of domestic abuse. I had a strong influence on the recognition of children as direct victims of coercive control in English legislation, and work to improve children's right to be heard in matters that impact them. I have a particular interest in the social construction and productive impact of policy.
