Dissertation Supervisor - Psychology, Psychotherapy, Business
Psychology Tutor
Trainee Psychotherapist

I have completed two research based degrees in psychology, namely, a Bachelors of Arts (BA) degree in Denominated Psychology and a Masters of Science (MSc) in Health Psychology. As part of these degrees I have undertaken two dissertations, one in both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies.

I am currently training in Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy Masters of Science (MSc) and as part of that process will be undertaking a third research dissertation in the qualitative methodology.

My areas of research interest are varied across the disciplines of psychology, psychotherapy, world religions, philosophy, and history, and include but are not limited to Jungian Analysis, Dream Interpretation, Mythology, Fairy Tales, Symbolism, and Film. I engage frequently and consistently in continuous professional development courses/workshops to continuously build upon my own skills and research capacity. Lastly, I keep up-to-date on the latest research developments within psychology/psychotherapy by following several peer-reviewed journal databases.

Tutoring Experience:

Approach to Grinds:

My approach to tutorials is one of collaboration between tutor and client, built on a person-centred foundation of empathy, mutual respect, client self-determination, and authenticity. Based on the Vygotskyian teaching theories of scaffolding and zone of proximal development my goal is to provide clients with an open and non-judgemental environment through which to engage and develop essential research and academic skills.

I provide one-to-one online tutorials and in-depth, professional feedback across a wide range of academic topics, including:

- Psychology
- Psychotherapy
- Business
- Essay writing
- Proof Reading
- Dissertation/Thesis writing
> Literature Reviews
> Ethics Applications
> Methodology
> Result Dissemination; Qualitative
> Theoretical Underpinnings

I have experience and am skilled in both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies, but my area of expertise is within qualitative research, particularly Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis and Thematic Analysis.
