Psychologist Thinking Aloud

A combination of positive psychology, media experience and writing on learning, development and life in general. The views that I express are my own and I do not write on behalf of anyone else or any organisations.

Author: Kairen Cullen

Hello, I’m Kairen Cullen and I’m a writer and an HCPC Registered Practitioner Psychologist (Educational) and specialist in media work. I am also a wife, mother of four and grandmother. I have worked with individual children, young people, parents and adults to help them achieve educational and personal success. I have also done a lot of work with groups, organisations, the press and media. Most of my work could be described as research in practice that is very much about practical solution-finding. I have reached the point in my practice where I have decided to change from the usual applied psychology assessment work and am now using my knowledge, skills and experience for writing, consultation and media-related work.
