My work explores the ways in which philosophy and psychology can both contribute to the study of well-being and virtue. My pubications include The Reflective Life: Living Wisely With Our Limits (Oxford 2008), Well-Being as Value Fulfillment: How We Can Help Others to Live Well (Oxford, 2018), Moral Psychology: A Contemporary Introduction (Routledge 2015, 2nd edition 2023) and What Do You Want out of Life?: A Philosophical Guide to Figuring Out What Matters (Princeton University Press, 2023).

You can find more information about me and my work on my personal website (valerietiberius.com). You'll find a more or less up-to-date CV there, too.
