Research & Training Interests:
Fusing transpersonal and depth psychology with experimental studies on consciousness. Recent research demonstrates how gamification in dream sharing with point-based incentives enhances social interaction, clinical healing, and transpersonal insight. She explores conscious and unconscious motives that drive expatriation from Western to non-Western countries. Her broader interests include applying archetypal and depth psychological methods to social behaviors, decision-making, and conflict resolution, blending academic rigor with applied research to explore diverse dynamics in consumer, clinical, and ecological psychology.
