Daniel’s work aims to help improve the lives of people with mental health conditions by developing, testing, and implementing new cognitive-behavioural interventions. Over the past decade he has developed the most effective psychological therapy for persecutory delusions: the Feeling Safe programme. He has pioneered the use of virtual reality (VR) to assess, understand, and treat mental health conditions. gameChange, a ground-breaking automated VR treatment for people with psychosis, is now being used in mental health services in the UK and USA.

Daniel is a Consultant Clinical Psychologist in Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust, an NIHR Senior Investigator, Fellow of the British Psychological Society, founder of the University spinout Oxford VR, and Fellow of the British Academy.
