Project overview
People with psychosis see, hear or believe things that others don't. These experiences can be compelling, highly distressing, and disrupt people’s lives.
We are working with people with psychosis, their family and friends, and NHS clinicians, to develop attachment based interventions and therapies.
Our 'attachment style' is informed by early relationships, and describes the way that we cope with difficult feelings and interact with others. Many people with psychosis report adverse early experiences and develop an insecure attachment style. This makes it hard to cope with their unusual experiences or access treatments that may beneficial.
Our work aims to support people to live well with psychosis – to feel safe, manage their distress, and access recommended treatments if they so choose.
