I am interested in phenomenological and hermeneutical approaches to mental health and their connection to value-based practice and a patient-centered approach.  Another area of interest is the relation between spirituality and value-based approaches to mental health.  I am currently organizing a series of events at the interface between psychiatry and philosophy as part of the Oxford Forum which I am running with the support of the Stanford University Centre, the Philosophy Faculty and TORCH. I am keen to co-organise events with the Centre and to collaborate on joint publications.
