Ambitious healthcare professional committed to providing high-quality patient care. I have more than six years of experience working as a nurse in numerous departments in general and mental health hospitals. I have completed my PhD study at the University of Manchester, United Kingdom. My PhD thesis is about developing a culturally adapted cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) intervention for people with schizophrenia in Saudi Arabia. During my PhD study, I obtained several courses in leadership, psychosocial interventions, developing complex interventions to improve health, behaviour change interventions, conducting individual interviews, conducting and moderating focus groups, and analysing qualitative results from high-reputation universities and institutes in the United Kingdom. My professional interest focuses on helping to develop, refine, and evaluate innovative and effective ways of delivering complex interventions to improve mental health, nursing care, and healthcare.
