RESEARCH INTERESTS
Anna's Doctoral research explored how professional identity is developed by psychologists, particularly within the domain of Sport & Exercise Psychology. This work considers how factors such as the supervisor-supervisee relationship, interventions and training type can influence psychologist development.
Anna also undertakes applied work, which is shared through case-studies to highlight the implementation of various therapuetic approaches (such as person-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy) within applied Sport & Exercise Psychology practice.
