Sponsor: New Life Psychiatric Rehabilitation Association
Summary
This exploratory study investigates the relapse condition in Hong Kong adults after low-intensity cognitive behavioural therapy (LICBT) treatment for 18 to 48 months with a 6-month interval. Individuals who received LICBT treatment between 2017 and 2020 will be recruited to assess their current mental health status.

Low-intensity cognitive behavioural therapy
Low-intensity cognitive behavioural therapy (LICBT) is a briefer form of the traditional cognitive behavioural therapy developed to help individuals with a lower severity of common mental disorders. LICBT is conducted in the form of individual guided self-help and comprises six to eight structured sessions in which psychological tools such as behavioural activation, worrying time, problem solving, exposure and habituation, and exposure and response prevention are taught.
