Research summary
People receiving mental health hospital treatment for psychosis prioritise having access to talking therapies as part of their treatment plan. However, very little research has been done to develop a talking therapy which can be offered in mental health hospital. Mental health hospitals care for people experiencing high levels of distress and risk of harm to themselves and others for very short periods of time. Currently, there is no talking therapy available which has been specifically developed to help this group of people in mental health hospital. The aim of this study is to try out an adapted talking therapy intervention to see if it may be helpful to inpatients. The study will also be trialling out a newly developed questionnaire which hopes to assess important therapy outcomes for people in mental health hospital, as there are currently no appropriate questionnaires.
