Sponsor: Centre Psychothérapique de Nancy
Summary
The main objective is to evaluate the efficacy of a group-based mindfulness therapy programme in reducing distress associated with symptoms of UHR (Ultra High Risk) or FEP (first psychotic episode) compared with usual treatment. The secondary objectives were to study the efficacy of a group-based mindfulness intervention: on the reduction of psychotic symptoms; on the maintenance over time (6 months of follow-up) of the efficacy of the intervention on the distress associated with the symptoms of the UHR or PEP state; and on various dimensions associated with care: cognitive functions, anxiety, quality of life.

MBTP : Mindflulness based training for psychosis
The group-based mindfulness programme is called MBTP (Mindfulness based training for psychosis). The MBTP programme consists of 5 sessions over a period of one month (2 sessions in the first week, then one session a week). Each session lasts approximately 1h30 and is carried out in a group of 5 participants.

Participants are encouraged to meditate at home between sessions.
