Summary
I am a provisional psychologist completing my studies at the University of Sydney. My research focus is to better understand the thinking styles that affect children with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and ultimately assist the development of empirically supported treatment strategies. I intend to achieve this by conducting an experiment that aims to identify and examine key thinking patterns in the production of anxiety and compulsive behaviours in children suffering from OCD.
