Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Conquer Fear Carer Brief

The intervention is delivered online by a psychologist or a master's-level student in psychology over three sessions during a 3-4-week period. The three sessions are structured to enhance participants' abilities in Detached Mindfulness (DM), a cognitive technique used in Metacognitive Therapy that involves perceiving thoughts and feelings as passing events without engaging with them. In Session 1, DM is introduced through dialogue, examples, and exercises. In session 2, Attention Training (AT) is introduced to support participants' ability to engage in DM through dialogue, examples, and exercises. In Session 3, DM and AT are reviewed and discussed depending on participants' needs, and their future application are discussed. Participants apply the introduced techniques at home between sessions through assigned homework.
