Regulatory adviser to Rephobia Limited
Dr Donnelly brings medical-device and regulatory experience. He helps Rephobia Limited decide what its software is for, where its limits are and what each version must meet.
Our research so far has been on fear of heights, with Queen’s University Belfast. Nothing has been tested for OCD or PTSD.
The study compared two ways of facing heights in virtual reality. The people who took part did not have a diagnosed phobia, so the findings tell us what people experienced and how the two formats differed.
Rephobia asked for and paid for the study. QUB researchers designed it, collected the data and did the analysis on their own.
The study was about phobias. Rephobia Limited has not tested anything for OCD or PTSD, and the findings say nothing about rePTSD.
When rePTSD opens, a qualified therapist will decide whether their approach is right for you and lead your treatment. Rephobia Limited will approve each therapist for PTSD before any request reaches them.
Everything Rephobia Limited has studied so far concerns phobias. rePTSD has no results of its own, and this site claims none.
Our privacy notice explains what this site records today and who is responsible for it.
