Aims and method Despite evidence of disparities in care received by Black communities, limited interventions exist to address them. The SEE ME training is a co-produced intervention using video testimonials to improve the care of Black individuals with psychosis within NHS early intervention in psychosis (EIP) services. This study explored mental health professionals’ experiences of the SEE ME training and its impact on addressing racial inequalities within EIP services. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 21 mental health professionals, and the data were analysed with thematic analysis. Results Thematic analysis identified six superordinate themes and 17 subthemes, encompassing the importance of adopting clients’ perspectives, prioritising individuals’ voices, enabling reflection, fostering shared humanity and creating psychological safety. Clinical implications This is the first qualitative study exploring the impact of SEE ME training. Findings offer valuable insights for improving anti-racist practice and service development in mental healthcare.
