Campo de especialización, principales intereses y temas de consulta:
My research focuses on healthcare communication, particularly within challenging contexts, such as medically unexplained symptoms, unhealthy behaviours and suicide. The goal of my work is to improve patient care and a key aspect is how to equip health professionals to communicate more effectively with patients, relatives and colleagues. I use a range of methods but specialise in how to integrate qualitative methods within randomised controlled trials to examine mechanisms of action, acceptability, feasibility and implementation of psychological and educational interventions.
