Summary

This study tests a new therapy that combines face-to-face sessions with virtual reality (VR) to help people with psychosis manage their emotions. Participants will practice emotion regulation skills in realistic VR scenarios with live coaching from a therapist. Fifteen people with psychosis will try the therapy and share their feedback through questionnaires and interviews. The goal is to see if VR can help bridge the gap between therapy and real life.
