1.3.4 Low Intensity-CBT (Li-CBT) guided self-help “With the increased prevalence of depression around the world, there is a growing need for assessing effective therapeutic interventions that are cost-effective, time limited interventions, to help improve outcomes and to be used as preventive measures as well. The Increasing Access to Psychological Services (IAPT) programme in England was developed in 2006 to test the effectiveness of providing significant increases in evidence-based psychological therapy services to people with the common mental health problems of depression and anxiety disorders (Juice, 2011). Being a new protocol of intervention for mild and moderate depression, there is few literatures referring to Li-CBT guided self-help …show more content…

Li-CBT guided self-help have been mainly developed in the context of clients with mild to moderate psychological disorders (Bennett, 2010). Li-CBT guided self-help has a theoretical and conceptual link to CBT and has been embedded in service provision as a way of providing access to psychological treatments for people diagnosed with mild to moderate anxiety and depressive disorder in the UK (National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health (UK), 2011; Barton et al, 2014). It consists of specific clinical procedures such as BA, CR, MS, exposure therapy, problem solving, managing panic and SL. Li-CBT guided self-help is known as a guided CBT: during therapy, the therapist is guiding clients through a succession of adopting new skills. In contrast, CBT based self-help without minimal support leaves the client to master these skills and be able to apply them independently (Joyce, …show more content…

There is inadequate evidence to determine the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Li-CBT guided self-help interventions for the prevention of relapse or recurrence of depression (Rodgers et al, 2012). In a systematic review of the clinical effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of low intensity interventions to prevent relapse or recurrence in clients with depression, results reported differing degrees of efficacy for the evaluated interventions and that there was also no difference between clients receiving the intervention and those receiving usual care in terms of relapse of depression over 12 months (Rodgers et al, 2012). The researcher aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Li-CBT guided self-help as it is shown according to the studies in UK that it created a major shift on the mental health services provided and incredibly increased the access to the psychological services and provided the evidenced based CBT to a wide range of the UK population in a very few years of application. Application of such a therapeutic protocol on Arabic speaking population may yield similar results which can help boost mental health services in Arabic

Phase One (Sessions 1 through 3) • The session 1 and 2 consists of the assessment of the client’s clinical problems and background information.

Marsha Linehan started off life with major difficulties in functioning, moved passed and learned to cope these difficulties, and created a successful and widely-used therapeutic approach that can help people who suffer from chronic disorders. She struggled most of her early adult life, but was able to work past her issues after she had a realization in her chapel one night. After a sudden realization, she was able to learn how to cope with her thoughts and feelings. Linehan, after working hard to complete her education following her institutionalization, apply everything she had realized to create a successful therapeutic approach.

There are several methods of delivery for school-based interventions depending on the population that they wish to affect, which can result in varying levels of effectiveness. They can be delivered universally or can be targeted towards students identified as at-risk for particular disorders or problem behaviors (Franklin et al. 2012). In universal interventions, all students participate in the intervention, regardless of their level of risk. For example, Bierman et al. (2010) performed a study on a universal SEL program called Fast Track PATHS (Promoting Alternative Thinking Strategies), which was delivered to all students in the first through the third grade.

Its stage-specific structure, a strong aspect of the model, allowed customised interventions for individuals by matching their current demands to the most appropriate sets of strategies to bring about change in behaviours. However, the same stage-specific structure of TTM also appeared to be a weakness when its rigidity excluded many potential clients at baseline for participating in the various TTM-based interventions conducted. Furthermore, the structure restricted the treatment progression in a linear fashion, which possibly overlooking any minute achievements at the personal level. The second strength and weakness were in term of the model’s functionality. TTM was shown evidently versatile as it could be effectively applied to changing behaviours in populations bearing various characteristics without having regular clinical supervisions and could even be used in psychotherapies.

For example, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) can be of great benefit to children and youth suffering from anxiety, while family therapy can be helpful in family conflicts or other types of behavioral problems.

Key Concepts: SFBT SFBT has a unique focus by favouring the present and the future via eschewing the past (Corey G. , 2012). In order to enhance lives SFBT, views behaviour change as the largest contributor in helping clients help themselves. Grounded on the optimistic assumption that all people are inherently healthy, competent and capable of constructing solutions, SFBT emphasizes competencies rather than deficits, therefore its a non-anthologising approach (Corey G. , 2016). Parallels can be drawn to positive psychology, which focuses on what a person is doing right rather the ‘problem’ that brought the client to therapy. SFBT highlights what is working and then helps clients apply this knowledge eliminating problems efficiently and effectively,
