Hannah works as a research fellow for Primary Care and Population Sciences. She is currently working on REDUCE, helping develop a web-based intervention to support patients withdrawing from long-term antidepressant use.
Hannah completed her PhD at Royal Holloway, investigating the role of emotional suppression and beliefs about the unacceptability of experiencing and expressing emotions in persistent physical symptoms. During this time, Hannah conducted research with participants with irritable bowel syndrome and fibromyalgia. As part of her PhD, Hannah developed a brief group intervention for irritable bowel syndrome.
