Brief Summary: Although measurement-based care (MBC) is an evidence-based practice with known benefits, it is not always systematically implemented with fidelity. Questions remain regarding MBC's unique added value compared to usual care.

Thus, the goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the implementation outcome, effectiveness, and mechanisms of change of measurement-based care in adult behavioral health. This study implemented MBC in adult ambulatory behavioral health and will test outcomes using a pragmatic randomized control trial within the RE-AIM (Reach, Efficacy, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance) framework.

Researchers will compare three groups: 1) the Measurement-based care group, 2) the treatment-as-usual group, and 3) the waitlist control group. Participants will participate in weekly individual psychotherapy sessions for 12 sessions in total.
Detailed Description: Measurement-based care (MBC) is an evidenced-based practice, involving routine completion of patient-reported outcome measures and collaborative discussions between clinician and client to inform clinical decision-making and facilitate improvement. Despite its known benefits, such as reduced dropout rates and improved treatment outcomes, questions remain regarding MBC's unique effectiveness compared to standard care. Furthermore, mechanisms of change on how MBC actually works in treatment have yet to be fully investigated. Thus, the current study aims to conduct a randomized control trial to evaluate the added value of MBC, by comparing an MBC+psychotherapy group, a psychotherapy-only group, and a waitlist group with no interventions.
