Filter by:This study evaluates two Internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy (ICBT) interventions: one for symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and one for symptoms of anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Both interventions have been tailored for Canadian public safety personnel (PSP). Outcomes of interest include preference for disorder-specific or transdiagnostic care, engagement with the interventions, changes in symptoms and functioning, and strengths and limitations of implementing ICBT with Canadian PSP.
Individuals who experience potentially traumatic events might develop long-lasting mental health problems. Limitations to health care resources, particularly in the context of mass disasters, indicate that self-help interventions could serve as important complementary offers to people in need. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether the Swedish version of the Swedish version of the PTSD Coach self-help smartphone application can reduce levels of posttraumatic stress and related difficulties. The study is a randomized controlled trial in which participants' levels of posttraumatic stress and related difficulties after three months use of PTSD Coach will be compared to a waitlist condition. Additionally, in order to better understand the interplay between app use and health status, participants in both groups will receive text messages in which they are asked to respond to a small number of very brief questions about specific behaviors and current health status for three weeks during the intervention period.
This study will examine the incremental benefit of animal-assisted therapy (AAT) as an adjunct intervention when combined with Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) for the treatment of maltreated youth. In addition, the development of therapeutic rapport and the intensity of stress experienced during treatment sessions will be examined as mediational mechanisms of treatment outcome. This project will help determine whether a larger study to test the beneficial effects of AAT for maltreated youth is feasible and warranted.
The aim of the study is to determine the effectiveness of a transdiagnostic psychotherapy intervention - namely, Common Elements Treatment Approach (CETA) - in reducing the severity of mental health symptoms experienced by torture and violence survivors displaced from Burma into Thailand. Specifically, the intervention seeks to measure reductions (if any) in symptoms of depression and trauma.
