What’s the project?
Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Oxford are looking for parents with psychosis to study the interaction between them and their children. The research will help the researcher to understand the experiences of parents with psychosis and how this might relate to parenting and wellbeing. The aim is to build a fuller picture of parent-child relationships and find better ways to support parents with psychosis, and their children.
