About me

I am a doctoral student in the Department of Social Psychology with a research focus on positive psychology - resilience. My current research project includes reviews of resilience from an intercultural perspective and how resilience is fostered in different cultures. In addition, I am working on coping mechanisms that are used to overcome the stressors death and loss.
In SoSe 2020 as well as in SoSe 2021 I will offer a seminar on "Communication- and Group-Processes" at Goethe University.
