Such a good example of themes we will be covering in a few weeks' time - media representations of crime - in the Victims and the Criminal Justice System module. #forensicpsychology

Are you a @YSJPsych student looking for paid research experience? I'm recruiting a research assistant for a project looking to develop an affirming gender identity scale. Details are on Handshake, or email me for the application form!

So pleased to have this book on #Trauma published this week. Wonderful to have collaborated with Dr Mark McFetridge and @DrEmmaBradshaw @dcopuk @MHEducation @BPS_DoCP @BPSOfficial @ysj_cc @YsjSocial @YorkStJohn

Feeling incredibly proud of @gburton221 who absolutely sailed through her upgrade @YSJPsych yesterday. It is such a privilege to be her supervisor and get to see her grow as a thoughtful, empathetic, and reflexive researcher. I really lucked out with my first PhD student!

Soon I'm going to be recruiting an RA for a project @YSJPsych looking at the intersections of gender, sexuality, (dis)ability and neurotype. It will be a mixed methods, coproduced approach. The post will be 1.5days/week for 10months. Advert on the way! Let me know if you have Qs.

Exciting day at the Body Psychology conference in Durham University.

Returning from 3 days at this beautiful place on @MHRIncubator writing retreat. An incredible privilege to be looked after so well and given the space to think; over 5000 words on paper! Met some truly brilliant people who I'm looking forward to staying in touch with ☀️
