Filter by:The main aim of the study is to examine patients' and therapists' experiences with prenatal psychotherapy provided to pregnant women with adverse childhood experiences and how this may influence intergenerational transmission of risk. The investigators will explore a) participants' perspectives on what promoted or prevented change in psychotherapy, b) how the mothers' reflective function changes and possible factors associated with change in reflective function. Up to 20 clinically referred women in gestational week 20-30 will be included and assessed with qualitative interviews and questionnaires at the beginning of treatment and when the baby is 4 months old. The quality of the mother-infant relationship will be assessed. Seven therapists will be interviewed with a qualitative interview schedule. Outcomes of the study will inform individual tailoring of psychotherapy for a high risk group of patients and provide increased knowledge about how intergenerational risk factors change during treatment.
Open enrollment study to collect data for the optimization of machine learning models for use in an app for the early detection of mental health and suicidal risk.
This research project is a hybrid type 2 effectiveness-implementation trial that simultaneously examines (1) the effectiveness of a trauma-focused intervention for youth in the education sector and (2) the impact of a theory-driven pragmatic implementation strategy designed to increase the adoption, fidelity, and sustainment of evidence-based treatments (EBTs). This trial will include 120 clinicians and 480 students, and it is designed to test the cost effectiveness and impact of Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) in a new setting that increases access to mental health care - schools (Aim 1); test the cost effectiveness, immediate impact, and sustained impact of the Beliefs and Attitudes for Successful Implementation in Schools (BASIS) implementation strategy on proximal mechanisms and implementation outcomes (Aims 2a, 2b, 2d); and conduct sequential mixed-methods data collection to explain residuals (i.e., clinicians whose implementation behavior is unaccounted for by the mediation model) (Aim 2c).
The purpose of this study is to assess the use of an audio recording containing positive suggestion as a means to provide needed psychological support to critically ill patients in a feasible and reliable manner.
yoga is a technique of hope. Indeed, it is a practice that specifically combines postures, breathing technique and a state meditative. The combination of these elements produces multiple effects that are exposed to detailed in the publications of Bessel Van der Kolk (Price et al., 2017; Rhodes, Spinazzola, & van der Kolk, 2016; Van der Kolk, 2014; Van Der Kolk et al., 2014) and whose four main effects are summarized here: - A regulation of the level of vigilance - An improvement in self-awareness - An increased sense of self-efficacy - Improved metacognition, awareness and regulation emotional
The current study aims to test a novel therapeutic intervention for women who have a history of interpersonal trauma. The Building Empowerment and Resilience (BEAR) Therapeutic group incorporates psychological skills, psychoeducation, and physical empowerment training, all within a therapeutic process. It will be implemented iwith women who have experienced interpersonal trauma (physical, sexual, or emotional abuse/neglect). The investigators aim to understand how this program effects one's self-efficacy and whether the program can reduce rates mental health problems (such as depression and anxiety) and reduce the rates of revictimization. Women who participate in the BEAR group must be able to attend in-person sessions. The control group can be remote.
The overall goal of this study is to develop, adapt and evaluate an intergenerational prevention intervention, named "Wakȟáŋyeža (Little Holy One)," with Native American caregivers on a Northern Plains reservation and the caregivers' 2-to-5-year-old children. The intervention aims to: 1) reduce symptoms of historical trauma and everyday stress among parents/caregivers, 2) improve parenting, and 3) improve children's emotional and behavioral developmental outcomes to reduce future risk for suicide and substance use.
This study evaluates a transdiagnostic Internet-delivered cognitive behavioural therapy (ICBT) recently tailored for Canadian public safety personnel (PSP) reporting symptoms of depression, anxiety, or posttraumatic stress. Outcomes of interest include engagement with the intervention, changes in symptoms and functioning, and strengths and limitations of implementing ICBT with Canadian PSP.
This study aims to identify unusual experiences and psychiatric symptoms that indicate a heightened risk for severe mental disorders - especially psychoses. It is important to develop reliable questionnaire methods that are cost-effective in first-stage screening, leading to in-depth assessments and targeted care. However, existing psychosis-risk questionnaires are limited in content, intended for adults, and have been insufficiently tested for actual predictive value. Therefore we will collect a new, large dataset from an unselected group of adolescents entering psychiatric care in three major urban areas of Finland. Comprehensive national health care registers will be used to assess how well the selected experiences and symptoms predict the participants' mental health over the following few years.
This study will test the eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) based Flash technique and a progressive counting (PC) based variant. EMDR-trained therapists will be trained in the standard Flash, and PC-trained therapists will be trained in PC Flash. In each group they will try it with a minor upsetting memory, and then with two more significant upsetting memories. Participants will use the subjective units of distress scale (SUDS) to rate distress pre- and post-treatment.
