Sarah is a Lecturer in Developmental Psychology at the University of Edinburgh. Her research explores parent-child relationships and the psychological wellbeing of family members across family transitions (e.g., becoming a parent, separation or divorce) and diverse family forms (e.g., elective co-parents, those created through assisted reproductive technologies, LGBTQIA+ parent-headed families). She is a collaborator on ongoing international prospective longitudinal studies, uses multiple methods in her research and has advanced quantitative expertise. Her current ESRC-funded research is exploring children’s relationships with their parents, adjustment, and experiences of different post-separation child arrangements in England and Scotland. She completed her ESRC-funded doctoral and postdoctoral research at the Centre for Family Research, University of Cambridge.
