Provider perception of the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of a transdiagnostic intervention in a youth partial hospitalization setting: A mixed methods implementation process evaluation.

Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) are increasingly relied upon to provide intensive mental health treatment for youth with acute and severely impairing mental health symptoms, yet very few interventions have been adapted to fit this unique delivery context. Transdiagnostic treatments hold promise for addressing the complex clinical presentations and workflow needs of PHP programs, but more work is needed to understand factors that influence successful implementation. We conducted a formative implementation process evaluation to identify barriers and facilitators of acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of implementing an evidence-based transdiagnostic intervention in a PHP setting and further targets for intervention and implementation adaptation.

The Provision and Utilization of Telehealth within Academic Mental Health Clinics in North America during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Objective: To document the experience of 14 academic child and adolescent psychiatry programs in transitioning to and managing telehealth services during the COVID-19 pandemic. The goal was to understand how programs adopted and sustained telehealth during the pandemic. Telehealth was defined as services delivered via videoconferencing and telephony.

Pilot Effectiveness and Acceptability of Partial Hospitalization Treatment Incorporating Transdiagnostic, Cognitive-Behavioral Intervention.

Acute mental health treatment (e.g., partial hospitalization or PHP) is a critical component of the mental health services landscape for youth whose symptoms are too acute for a typical outpatient setting, but for whom inpatient psychiatric hospitalization is not recommended or desired.

Parenting in a Pandemic: Preliminary Support for Delivering Brief Behavioral Parent Training Through Telehealth.

Behavioral problems, such as noncompliance and aggression, are a common referral reason to mental health services for young children. Behavioral parent training (BPT) is the leading intervention for addressing behavioral problems and leads to benefits in a variety of parental factors (e.g.

The Transition of Academic Mental Health Clinics to Telehealth During the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Objective: A consortium of 8 academic child and adolescent psychiatry programs in the United States and Canada examined their pivot from in-person, clinic-based services to home-based telehealth during the COVID-19 pandemic. The aims were to document the transition across diverse sites and to present recommendations for future telehealth service planning.

Method: Consortium sites completed a Qualtrics survey assessing site characteristics, telehealth practices, service use, and barriers to and facilitators of telehealth service delivery prior to (pre) and during the early stages of (post) the COVID-19 pandemic.

Development and Application of an Innovative Transdiagnostic Treatment Approach for Pediatric Irritability.

Recent work has drawn attention to the previously underrecognized role that irritability plays in childhood psychopathology. Despite increased recognition of the clinical importance of pediatric irritability as a transdiagnostic symptom dimension, there is a lack of evidence-based treatments for this population that simultaneously and equitably addresses both child and contextual (e.g.
