CHERISH Interview – BBC Radio London

Hi! I’m Laura & I am a doctoral researcher at the University of Westminster. My research so far has mainly focused on helping understand self-harm amongst University students, and the vital role of those providing support for this group. Whilst study part-time, I also work as an assistant psychologist in the NHS, which involves providing psychological support for individuals with mental and physical health difficulties. I really enjoy spending time in a clinical setting alongside my PhD. I very much hope to continue with my passion for research, and I hope that the development of this website will be beneficial to those that I have had the pleasure of speaking to and interviewing during my PhD. In my spare time, I enjoy running, watching football (Liverpool FC!) and going to the cinema.
