Summary

The main goal of this project is to address several gaps in the current literature in an exploratory way, by generating data via a synthesized research design. There are three fields of research this project seeks to have a meaningful impact on: the digital implementation of systemic psychotherapy-informed principles and approaches into unguided self-help growth paths, the training of paraprofessional mental health service providers with systemic psychotherapy-informed listener training, and the utilization of paraprofessional mental health service providers in the delivery of online guided systemic psychotherapy-informed self-help interventions.

This impact will be derived from addressing the following research questions:

* Are online self-help interventions based on systemic psychotherapy approaches and principles feasible?
* Are online self-help interventions based on systemic psychotherapy approaches and principles efficacious (as compared to a waitlist), indicated by mental-health-related outcomes of participants?
* Is training of paraprofessionals in guiding the use of self-help interventions based on systemic psychotherapy approaches and principles feasible?
* Is this training of paraprofessionals based on systemic psychotherapy approaches and principles efficacious (as compared to a waitlist), indicated by mental-health-related outcomes of trainees?
