Description

Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust are seeking to recruit a full -time research assistant to work on a National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) funded project.

This is an exciting opportunity to be a part of an innovative Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Depersonalisation-Derealisation Disorder (CBT-for-DDD) project.

This project aims:
(1) to investigate the feasibility of using CBT-for

DDD in a small study where people with DDD are randomly divided into either having CBT or not, and (2) try this within a typical NHS setting.

This will then enable us to refine the treatment and set up a large-scale clinical trial to show if it really works and how best to deliver it. The research team is led by Dr Elaine Hunter, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, from Camden and Islington NHS Foundation Trust and University College London.
