Profile
Biography
I teach a range of classes in applied linguistics, focused on language learning. I am interested in the holistic study of multilingualism, from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives (inc. psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic), and in particular how improving awareness about multilingualism is essential to social justice. I also write about the linguistic dimension of researcher reflexivity and ethics in multilingual contexts. My doctoral research highlighted how multilingual clients in psychotherapy can be enabled to use their languages to process traumatic experiences, regulate emotion and navigate identity issues, when therapists are open to multilingual practices.
