I'm excited to be part of the StreetMind development team as post-doctoral researcher at the Institute of Medical Psychology and Medical Sociology, University Medical Center Schleswig-Holstein. My background is in Psychology (B.Sc., Konstanz, Germany; Oslo, Norway) and Neuroscience (M.Sc., London, UK). I completed my PhD in 2021 at the University of Mannheim and the Central Institute of Mental Health (University of Heidelberg) about learning and neuroplasticity in patients with posttraumatic stress disorder. Since 2018, I have been training as a psychotherapist specializing in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). My research focuses on mental health, in particular the effects of adversity and trauma, and it's interaction with the environment using virtual reality (VR), ecological momentary assessment (EMA), and neuroimaging.
