About Rebecca

I have worked as an Occupational Therapist for over ten years in a community based roles and acute settings. I am proud to be an alumni of the University of Plymouth. My most recent role was in a Pain Management Rehabilitation service. This inspired my current research, which recognises the importance of amplifying the voice of those living with chronic pain and their friends, family and supporters. I am a PhD student exploring the unique contribution occupational therapy has in pain management in the UK.

Teaching

I enoy teaching across our programmes including, interprofessional working, research and case based learning occupational studies across the lifespan. 

I am an Admissions Tutor and enjoy welcoming potential learners to our campus and discussing our learning opportunities.
