Filter by:In this pilot study, the effect of a group intervention targeting self-criticism in adolescents in a clinical child- and adolescent psychiatric outpatient setting will be examined using a single-case experimental design (AB). Participants will be randomized to multiple baseline with weekly measures. Our primary outcomes, measured weekly, are self-criticism, nonsuicidal self-injury and symptoms of depression and anxiety, as well as an individually chosen behavior driven by self-criticism. Secondary outcomes are self-compassion, psychological flexibility, quality of life and functioning. In addition to the weekly administered questionnaires, before and after measures, and 3- and 6-month follow-up will be collected. After the treatment, participants will also be interviewed about their experiences of targeting self-criticism.
Participants (aged 13-16) will be randomized to: (1) an online, active control group program encouraging feelings disclosure (i.e. supportive therapy single session intervention [SSI]), or (2) an online program targeting nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI; i.e. Project "SAVE"-Stop Adolescent Violence Everywhere-SSI). Investigators will test whether SAVE results in significantly greater: 1. Reductions in NSSI 3 months post-treatment [primary outcome] 2. Reductions in self-reported likelihood of future NSSI immediately post-treatment [secondary outcome] 3. Reduction in suicide ideation frequency 3 months post-treatment [secondary outcome]
Non-suicidal self-inflicted (NSSI) scars can act as a physical reminder of previous self-inflicted self-harm, thereby not only worsening the symptoms of depression and self-doubt but also leading to recurrent self-infliction and social exclusion. Several different treatment options exist to alter the appearance of NSSI scars like pulsed-dye laser therapy (PDL), non-ablative fractional laser therapy, dermabrasion or elliptical excision. However, none of these treatment options can completely diminish the scars. In the majority of cases, the unique scar pattern of NSSI scars and in addition to that the "reminder" remains. In contrast to regular scar revisions, the aesthetical appearance is not the most important outcome parameter as the main focus of the surgical treatment is destigmatization. The surgical transformation of the scar into a burn-like scar could change the scar-perception of the society and the patient, thereby improving the patient's quality of life and body perception. Surgical resection with preservation of the subcutaneous tissue followed by consecutive reconstruction with a bilayer dermal regenerative matrix (IntegraTM) and split skin grafts might represent a promising and novel therapeutic approach. The hypothesis is that by surgically transforming the non-suicidal self-inflicted scars into a burn-like scar the patient's body and scar perception will be positively altered and the stigmatization by the society reduced.
This study will examine the feasibility and acceptability of a program designed to conduct safety planning with youth in the juvenile justice system who are at risk for a suicide attempt and/or self-injury and to increase the possibility of them receiving outpatient mental health treatment. After training staff in the intervention, the investigators will pilot test the safety planning intervention and gather information on how well it worked on reducing self-harm, getting families to follow up with referrals for mental health care, and how often they attend treatment.
My study will employ a convergent mixed methods two-arm parallel randomized controlled design. The qualitative strand will primarily rely on semi-structured interview procedures to answer the following questions: (1) How do adolescents perceive and experience the phenomenon of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI)? (2) What do adolescents believe needs to be done to address NSSI? The quantitative strand will primarily rely on clinical interview data, self-report measures, and an experimental task protocol to answer the following question: What is the impact of a brief mindfulness induction (versus a control condition) on self-injury attentional bias among self-injuring adolescents?
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for individuals who engage in nonsuicidal self-injury(NSSI) and have comorbid anxiety. With the data collected from the study, the investigators will test the following hypotheses: Acceptance and commitment therapy will lead to reductions in anxiety and self-harm behaviors in non-suicidal self-injury individuals.
To evaluate if Internet delivered emotion regulation individual therapy for adolescents is an efficacious treatment when delivered as adjunctive to treatment as usual compared to a control group consisting of treatment as usual.
The primary aim is to investigate the effectiveness of an Internet-delivered Emotion Regulation Individual Therapy for Adolescents (ERITA) with nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI).
The primary aim is to investigate the effectiveness of Emotion Regulation Individual Therapy for Adolescents (ERITA) who self-harm.
