- ll14qs@leeds.ac.uk
Qandeel graduated from the University of Leeds with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology in 2018. After working in inpatient mental health services for two years, Qandeel returned to Leeds to study MSc Psychological Approaches to Health (2021). She is currently undertaking a PhD at the University of Leeds, funded by NIHR ARC. Qandeel’s PhD explores the use of low value mental health care practices from the service user’s perspective. Qualitative methods including interviews and ethnographic observations will be used to identify potential targets for de-implementation and explore how these practices could be reduced, removed, replaced, or restricted.
