About
Elea helps organisations understand not just what’s happening to the people they serve and employ, but why, and what to do about it.
She’s a researcher and evaluator with a PhD in Psychology, specialising in mixed-methods research, service evaluation and survey analysis across mental health, wellbeing, inclusion and inequalities.
On our projects she brings research design and analysis. She designs and analyses surveys, combines quantitative data with qualitative evidence, evaluates services against outcomes, experience and equality of access, and carries out evidence reviews. She writes clearly for audiences ranging from senior decision-makers to academic readers. Her work covers health and the NHS, workforce wellbeing, mental health, inclusion and public services.
Elea leads evaluation, insight and reporting on workforce inclusion, engagement and wellbeing at University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust, where her published evaluation of the Trust’s staff psychological support service helped secure funding for more capacity. Her doctoral research at the University of Sussex examined how digital mental health interventions are implemented in NHS services, and she’s taught research methods at the Universities of Sussex and Brighton. She also designs and delivers EDI and cultural humility training.
