Family Connections Transdiagnostic for relatives of people with emotional dysregulation

The intervention lasts 3 months and includes 12 two-hour sessions in a group format on a weekly basis. The FC-T program is divided into 6 modules: 2 modules of psychoeducation on emotional dysregulation (ED) and 4 modules of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)-based skills training (relationship mindfulness, emotional regulation, acceptance, validation, and problem management).

BEHAVIORAL

Optimized Treatment as Usual (TAU-O)

Family members will receive the usual care available in their clinical setting. In addition, they will participate in a single 3-hour group psychoeducation session including the following components: (1) up-to-date information and research on emotional dysregulation (epidemiology, frequency, comorbidity, risk and protective factors); and (2) psychoeducation on the development of emotional dysregulation, explanatory models, and available treatments.
