Summary

This exploratory study investigates the relapse condition in Hong Kong adults after low-intensity cognitive behavioural therapy (LICBT) treatment for 18 to 48 months with a 6-month interval. Individuals who received LICBT treatment between 2017 and 2020 will be recruited to assess their current mental health status. It is hypothesised that the improvements in depression and anxiety scores will be maintained at 18-to-48-month follow-up.

Low-intensity cognitive behavioural therapy

Low-intensity cognitive behavioural therapy (LICBT) is a briefer form of the traditional cognitive behavioural therapy developed to help individuals with a lower severity of common mental disorders. LICBT is conducted in the form of individual guided self-help and comprises six to eight structured sessions in which psychological tools such as behavioural activation, worrying time, problem solving, exposure and habituation, and exposure and response prevention are taught.
