Mental Health Apps for Mild Psychological Distress Amongst Adolescents

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

This study investigates mental health mobile apps, to understand their efficacy in reducing mild levels of psychological distress amongst adolescents. All participants will be provided with an app which is already available in the public domain, and will be asked to use the app for guided self-help. Half of participants will receive a weekly telephone call, whilst the other half will not.

Clinical Trial Description

The subscription version of the app "Sanvello" has several self-help exercises based on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (to identify and challenge their thinking styles) and Mindfulness practices (to connect them with the present moment). Participants will be asked to complete these exercises on a daily basis for five weeks. Telephone calls will be provided weekly to half of participants to provide information about the app, or a rationale for its use. This phone call will not serve to provide any extra intervention or therapy to the participants. ;
