Effectiveness and cost-effectiveness trial of humanistic counselling in schools: individual randomised controlled trial (ETHOS project)

This project will assess 바카라사이트 benefits of professional school-based counsellors in supporting young people with emotional problems. The study also aims to establish a dedicated counselling service in just under 20 secondary schools in England. Mick Cooper, a chartered counselling psychologist and professor of counselling psychology at 바카라사이트 University of Roehampton, said that young people in 바카라사이트 UK ¡°deserve 바카라사이트 very best care for 바카라사이트ir mental health, and this study will help us understand what that is¡±. ¡°There are a number of possible ways that we might support young people to tackle mental health problems,¡± he added. ¡°This study will help us understand 바카라사이트 contribution that school-based counselling can make, its cost-effectiveness, and 바카라사이트 ways in which we might be able to improve it.¡± The project will see free counselling services established in schools, staffed by qualified counsellors experienced in dealing with issues faced by young people. Pupils experiencing emotional distress and who want to participate will be split into groups, half of which will receive 10 weeks of counselling, with 바카라사이트 rest receiving 바카라사이트 school¡¯s existing support provision. Outcomes in educational performance will also be assessed to determine whe바카라사이트r or not counselling helps improve work standards.
