Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a naturalistic study implementing a routine outcome monitoring system to track clients' change and outcomes at the Centro de Psicología Aplicada (CPA) of the Universidad de Las Américas in Quito, Ecuador

Clinical Trial Description

This is an exploratory and descriptive naturalistic longitudinal project. The general objective of this study is to systematically examine the progress and outcomes of psychological interventions provided at the Centro de Psicología Aplicada (CPA) of the Universidad de Las Américas by routinely monitoring outcomes through an standardized system. Characteristics of the participants and the received interventions will be recorded through the use of assessment forms filled by therapists before and after therapy, and clients will complete outcome measures on psychological distress, life satisfaction, ambivalence in psychotherapy, family functioning, therapeutic alliance, and satisfaction with the treatment received. This is the first project in Ecuador to propose a system for routine outcome monitoring in psychotherapy. It could contribute to develop normative trajectories of change and expected recovery curves in the future and to improve the quality of psychological treatments. ;
