This work provides an up-to-date examination of the available intervention options and their effectiveness for children and young people (CYP).
This study is the first to explore the remission and relapse rates after an acute phase of iCBT treatment, within a routine, stepped-care setting. The results add to the scarce literature on the durability of the effects of iCBT treatment in routine care settings, where patients are not typically followed up after receiving a completed course of treatment.
This pilot study examined the preliminary effects of a digital program on financial difficulties and mental health within an routine clinical setting. The results showed patients experienced significant improvements in depression, anxiety and perceived financial wellbeing. Satisfaction rates with the program were at 95%, suggesting it was highly accepted.”
