I am a senior lecturer in psychology and my specialist research area is working with male victims of female perpetrated intimate partner violence. I also do work more broadly within the area of domestic violence and abuse.

My current projects and collaborators are:

• Examining older men’s experiences of domestic violence (with colleagues at Teeside University)
• Exploring men’s post-separation experiences of domestic violence (with colleagues at University of Cumbria)
• Exploring men’s experiences of having their relationship with their children disrupted and the relationship with experiences of domestic violence (with colleagues at University of West London)
• Examining how men move on from their abusive experiences through the use of photo elicitation (with colleagues at University of Cumbria)
• Exploring the impact of walking and the outdoors on men’s experiences of “recovery” from domestic violence (with colleagues at University of Cumbria and UCLan)
• Exploring the barriers to help-seeking for male victims of domestic violence(with colleagues at University of Cumbria)
