My research is focused on the biopsychosocial impact of nature based interventions within social prescribing for those with, or at risk of, non communicable diseases. I’m looking forward to seeing the BrEPS community grow and hope that it provides opportunities to connect, learn, share and further develop the Environmental Psychology field.

People-place relationships are at the heart of my research investigating the psychological benefits of place attachment. With a background in architecture, I am eager to support interdisciplinary efforts and hope that through a strong BrEPS community the awareness of environmental psychology broadens.
