Katie is a clinical psychologist, based in Australia, who works to improve suicide prevention by building the capacity of health services and the community to translate evidence into practice and find out what works ‘in the real world’ for suicide prevention.
Her research aims to:
• build knowledge about best practice care for people at risk of suicide;
• improve data capture and use of self-harm and suicide data at a clinical, community, health service and policy level;
• embed evaluation of suicide prevention services and initiatives into routine practice;
• build understanding of the needs and perspectives of people with lived experience of suicidality;
• explore the effectiveness of suicide prevention initiatives from an implementation science perspective, in order to improve translation efforts
• be policy-relevant and informative.
