Brief Summary:
One in eight children and young people (CYP) suffer mental health problems needing support or treatment and 5% have more than one such problem. The effects can be major, affecting CYP emotionally and functionally, impacting progress at school, relationships with others and increasing long term risk of mental health problems. Parents, schools, policy makers and the NHS often struggle to find the best way to help, especially within their limited budgets. The UK Government and the NHS have highlighted the need to improve mental health in CYP.
The most common treatment is cognitive behavioural therapy; however this can be time consuming, needs to be delivered over many weeks, must focus on the most upsetting problem first and is not very effective. One way to overcome this is to evaluate a group therapy that can treat multiple mental health problems at once. This new treatment is called Metacognitive Therapy (MCT).
The aim of the study is to see if participating in a randomized trial of Group MCT is a feasible and acceptable treatment for CYP suffering with anxiety, stress, depression, or a combination in comparison to usual care. This allows us to test key questions about recruitment and drop-out rates, test the protocol, and gain information about MCT including training and supervision needs of clinicians and the experience of patients receiving it.
