Funded Activity Summary

Psychotic disorders (such as schizophrenia) are some of the most severe forms for mental disorder. Many people with psychosis have experienced trauma in childhood or as a result of their psychosis, and have developed post-traumatic stress disorder as a result. The aim of the proposed study is to test whether a simple psychological intervention is effective in reducing trauma symptoms in FEP. This has the potential to significantly improve outcomes in FEP.
