About

I am a Clinical Psychology researcher based in Pakistan, with an M.S. in Clinical Psychology from Riphah International University and academic training at International Islamic University Islamabad. I currently work as a Research Assistant and Senior Data Analyst, contributing to interdisciplinary research projects that integrate clinical psychology, cognitive science, and applied research methodology. My work combines quantitative and qualitative approaches, including experimental and quasi-experimental design, psychological assessment, survey development, SPSS and R-based statistical analysis, NVivo qualitative analysis, and systematic literature synthesis. I have research and clinical experience in adolescent and young adult mental health, suicidality, emotion regulation, neurodevelopmental conditions, and culturally responsive psychological interventions. I am particularly interested in collaborative, interdisciplinary research that bridges clinical psychology with education, cognitive science, and emerging technologies, including AI-informed learning and mental health contexts. I value research that is theoretically grounded, methodologically rigorous, and socially meaningful, especially in diverse and cross-cultural settings.
