Medication management in Early Intervention for Psychosis services: Exploring shared decision-making processes

我有定性研究的天赋，即民族志和内容分析。我感兴趣的主要领域是精神病和创伤，以及如何使用定性研究来改善这些人群的护理。我相信共同决策是有效、合乎道德和充满活力的心理健康治疗不可或缺的一部分。我有很强的研究、组织和人际交往能力。在我的硕士期末项目中，我正在与撒玛利亚人密切合作，评估最近一位女名人自杀事件的新闻报道质量。为了使研究具有新颖性和创新性，我正在与自杀研究领域的知名学者合作，修改一个知名的内容分析工具，使其适用于网络媒体。我参与了一项研究，研究叙事暴露疗法（创伤聚焦疗法）对寻求庇护者的长期影响。这包括文献综述、采取后续措施、分析数据、对服务用户进行定性访谈和管理。我参与了由伦敦大学学院Changemakers资助的项目，调查伦敦大学学院如何在硕士学习期间支持有心理健康问题的学生。我正在开发一个主题指南，以引导过去和现在的学生进行焦点小组讨论，并将研究结果写入伦敦大学学院的员工/学生指南中。我已经采取了具体的模块，如精神卫生保健评估和政策，这教我如何获取证据，以告知和改善精神卫生保健的提供。当前精神病和双相情感障碍的研究模块让我了解了精神病的生物心理社会定义、治疗和当前的研究。获得咨询技能基础意味着我有出色的人际交往能力，尤其是在进行采访时，我在政策智库的工作经历意味着我知道如何成功地吸引利益相关者，并将研究转化为政策和现实世界的变化。

I have an aptitude for qualitative research, namely ethnography and content analysis. My key areas of interest are psychosis and trauma, and how qualitative research can be used to improve the delivery of care in these populations. I believe Shared Decision Making is integral to effective, ethical and dynamic mental health treatment. I have highly developed research, organisational and people skills.For my MSc final project, I am working closely with the Samaritans to evaluate the quality of press reporting on a recent female celebrity suicide. To make the research novel and innovative, I am collaborating with leading academics in suicide research to modify a well-known content analysis tool, so it is appropriate for online media. I am involved with a study looking at the long-term impact of Narrative Exposure Therapy (Trauma Focused Therapy) in asylum seekers. This includes literature reviews, taking follow up measures, analysing data, conducting qualitative interviews with service users, and managing. I am involved in the project funded by UCL Changemakers investigating how UCL supports students with mental health difficulties during the MSc. I am developing a topic guide to lead focus groups with past and present students and will write up the findings into guidance for staff/students within UCL.I have taken specific modules such as Mental Health Care Evaluation and Policy, which taught me how to acquire evidence to inform and improve the delivery of mental health care. The Current Research in Psychosis and Bipolar Disorder module gave me an understanding of the biopsychosocial definitions, treatment, and current research in psychosis.Undertaking a Foundation in Counselling Skills means I have excellent people skills, especially when conducting interviews, and my experience working in a policy thinktank means I know how to engage stakeholders successfully and convert research into policy and real-world change.
