Rosie is interested in employing longitudinal research methods to explore risk and protective factors for suicide and self-harm, eating disorders, and psycho-oncology. She also has a background in psychometrics and experimental methods, particularly in testing the acceptability and efficacy of (e)mental-health interventions.

Qualifications

Biography

Rosie completed a BSc and MRes in Psychology and is currently studying for a PhD in Psychology (part-time) from the University of Chester. In her PhD, she explores whether values-based interventions are protective against suicidal thoughts and behaviours.

Rosie currently works on an NIHR-funded project employing mixed-methods to understand self-harm in adolescents with an eating disorder in outpatient NHS settings. 

Prior to her current role, Rosie worked as a Senior Research Assistant on a funded clinical trial testing the efficacy of an e-intervention on mental-health outcomes for patients with cancer. She is currently an Honorary Research Associate at the University of Chester
