Propose a Study
If you've got a proven therapy that's deliverable by recent psychology graduates, and access to a demographic who'd likely benefit from it, there's a good chance we'd be up for testing it out.
Rapid Ethical Approval
We've got an ethics board which usually makes a decision within two weeks of submission. It operates completely independently from Overcome's management, so it's impartiality isn't compromised.
All the grunt work taken care of for you?
We've got an army of enthusiastic graduates up for gathering the data, doing the stats, and writing up the methods. You'd be responsible for the high-level planning, designing the interventions and training people to deliver the intervention. Alternatively, just use our ethics board and do the rest yourself!
