My PhD research at the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences of Ghent University focused on recovery from problem substance use through the eyes and lived experiences of persons with a migration background and ethnic minorities. I obtained my PhD in 2023 and have since been involved in several European and Belgian/Flemish research projects, which focus on the intersectional lived or living experiences of migration, ethnic, religious, or cultural minorities, addiction, mental health, precarious living situations, forensic involvement, and those working with these populations. To better align research, practice, and policy with the needs of the people they are intended to serve, I am a strong proponent of qualitative and participatory research methods.
