Summary
The interventions will be provided in the context of randomised controlled clinical trials - including an evaluation of a new six-month guided online programme for the treatment of persecutory delusions: Feeling Safer. Patients can access Feeling Safer whenever they choose via smartphone/computer with support from a range of mental health workers. We hope this will substantially improve outcomes for people with persecutory delusions. You'll work clinically across a number of NHS trusts, delivering the intervention remotely to patients and also help recruit patients to take part in the study. The primary base will be in the Oxford Cognitive Approaches to Psychosis (O-CAP) team in the Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford. Interested applicants will find the type of work described in these two publications: Freeman, D., Isham, L., Waite, F. (2025).
