My main research area is domestic violence and its health effects. I have studied domestic violence since 2012, and I also have practical experience on working with survivors and perpetrators of domestic violence. As a psychologist I have worked with various mental health problems and are well-versed in client motivation. In addition to domestic violence, I’m also interested in clinical psychology, mental health, psychotherapy and psychological interventions. Most of my research has utilized quantitative methods, but I also have experience on qualitative methods and mixed-method research. In my research and teaching I aim to combine individual and societal perspectives, reflecting my background in social sciences.
