Dr Kirstie Rees

Speaker Summary

I am a specialised Child and Educational Psychologist and tutor on the MSC in Educational Psychology at the University of Dundee. I am passionate about combining theory and research with pragmatic and accessible approaches that enable parents, carers and education staff to promote the progress and mental health and wellbeing of children and young people with learning difficulties and disabilities. I have written a number of research articles in this area, as well as a book, published by Jessica Kingsley in February 2024. I have also delivered workshops and keynote talks at conferences in the UK and oversees.
