About me


Hello! I'm a final year Ph.D. Candidate at the University of Crete and a Marie Sklodowska Curie Fellow in the Neo-PRISM-C Innovative Training Network

My dissertation is about the development and implementation of a multimodal intervention program (child training and parent training) for children with attention deficits and their parents, called 'Child ViReal Support Program'. The individualized child training program utilizes the potentials of immersive virtual reality (iVR) technology for the training of focused and sustained attention and combines practices based on cognitive-behavioral approach for children’s training on behavioral and emotional self-regulation skills. The parents' group psychoeducation program gives parents the opportunity to get trained on behavior modification techniques, optimal parental practices as well as techniques for the enhancement of their children’s cognitive deficits, while they learn how to cope and manage their own anxiety/stress.

My interests lie at the intersection of psychology and technology. I like to employ different types of methodological tools in my research, such as virtual reality and computerized cognitive tasks, while I rely on traditional evidence-based interventions for children with neurodevelopmental dysfunctions and their parents.
