Research
Engaging in research is an important aspect of academic life. Below are listed publications and presentations arising from this work (both sole research and research in collaboration with others), some of which has focused on spirituality and psychological health; the experiences of those with disability and serious illness and their carers’ needs; sense-making in the context of trauma and loss; and health practitioner professional formation. I continue to research via a range of research collaborations, including as Senior Research Fellow with the Lumen Research Institute (2017-2020).
