Study Overview
This study focuses on a new approach to help adolescents with emotional disorders by involving their mothers in a therapeutic program.
Background
Many adolescents face mental health issues, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to increased anxiety and depression. Traditional treatments like medication and therapy can be expensive and hard to access. Therefore, we need simple and effective solutions. The Tension and Trauma Release Exercise (TRE) is a promising method that helps reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.
Study Goals
This trial aims to see if a mother-child intervention using TRE can improve treatment for adolescents with emotional disorders.
Methods
We will recruit 140 pairs of adolescents with emotional disorders and their mothers. They will be randomly assigned to either a treatment group or a control group:
- The treatment group will receive standard medication along with TRE group therapy for eight weeks.
- The control group will initially receive only medication for eight weeks, then switch to the TRE therapy while continuing evaluations.
We will also look at how the mothers’ emotional health affects their children’s treatment and explore the underlying psychological and physiological factors.
Importance of the Study
This research aims to find a simple yet effective psychological intervention that can significantly improve the lives of adolescents with emotional disorders. The results could benefit not just the teens but also their families and communities.
