Bravo to Dr David Eckel for completing his PhD at Swinburne University of Technology!! It was an honour to co-supervise his research alongside Prof Glen Bates and A/Prof Steve Theiler. His research stretched my thinking in wonderfully unexpected ways, and I am grateful for all he has taught me.

SO PROUD of Dr Inge Gnatt, who I had the privilege of co-supervising w/Prof Maja Nedeljkovic & A/Prof Andrea Phillipou. She officially completed her PhD this week! Her research has potential to improve treatment for people with co-occurring #EatingDisorders and #PTSD symptoms.

Last week, at #QRMH10 in Budapest, I had the privilege to present a study on the professional experiences of 90 psychologists in Australia w/histories of nonsuicidal self-injury (#NSSI).

This important study was led by Sam Dax during her clinical #psychology masters research at #Swinburne.

Our model explained 59% of the variation in PTSD symptoms, indicating the relevance of both emotion dysregulation and shame in the genesis of PTSD symptoms among women interpersonal trauma survivors.
