  Background: Little is known about the influence on outcome of exploration of the patient-therapist relationship (that is, transference work) in psychoanalytic psychotherapy. We hypothesized that depressed adolescents would have better long-term effects from psychoanalytic psychotherapy with than without transference work. Methods: Depressed adolescent (16 to 18 years) were recruited in health authority funded out-patient clinics in Oslo and Vestfold County, Norway. They were randomized to 28 weeks of treatment with psychoanalytic psychotherapy with or without transference work. Change was assessed using linear-mixed models. The primary outcome measure was the Psychodynamic Functioning Scale (pre- post-, and 1-year post-treatment). Level of depression was measured at the same time points and during therapy (week 12, and 20). Results: 69 adolescents were treated with (N = 39) or without (N = 31) transference work. The mean number of sessions was 18.6 (SD = 8,6) in the transference work group and 18.0 (SD = 10.9) in the non-transference work group. Both groups showed large and significant improvement on Psychodynamic Functioning Scale during the whole study period. The difference between the two groups was not significant during the treatment period (95% CI -.79 to 1.2, p = .674, F = .18), or from post-treatment to one-year follow-up (95% CI -.13 to .96; p = .134; F = 2.3). For the secondary outcome measures the transference work group had significantly better outcomes from 12 weeks in treatment to one-year follow-up (Beck Depression Inventory, 95% CI - 1.7 to -.14, p = .022; Montgomery and Åsberg Depression Rating Scale, 95% CI - 1.6 to -.23, p = .009). Conclusion: The findings suggest that exploration of the adolescents' relations to the therapist amplify the effects of short-term psychoanalytic psychotherapy on their depressive symptoms for adolescents with a Major Depressive Disorder.

  There is uncertainty concerning what the active ingredients in psychotherapy are. The First Experimental Study of Transference interpretations (FEST) was a randomized controlled trial of the effects of transference work (TW) in psychodynamic psychotherapy. Women with low quality of object relations (QOR) showed a large positive effect of transference work, while men with high QOR showed a slight negative effect. The present study aimed to expand the knowledge from the FEST by investigating the therapeutic atmosphere with Structural Analysis of Social Behavior (SASB). Two-way ANOVAs were conducted to investigate differences between SASB cluster scores between subgroups. The therapeutic atmosphere was characterized by Protect-Trust, Affirm-Disclose and Control-Submit. Multilevel modeling was used to assess the relationship between a therapist variable and outcomes for men and women. Contrary to expectations, no significant differences in therapeutic atmosphere between subgroups (with or without TW in women with low QOR and men with high QOR) were observed using the process measure SASB.

  Background There is emerging evidence for the effectiveness of psychodynamic psychotherapy for depressive disorders. However, we know less of how this relation-focused therapy mode is experienced and what the patients themselves identify as helpful. Hence, the purpose of this study is to explore adolescents’ experiences of factors promoting improvement in psychodynamic therapy. Methods Eight female patients participating in a Norwegian study on psychodynamic therapy, the First Experimental Study of Transference Work – In Teenagers (FEST-IT), were included. The participants were offered a total number of 28 sessions. Semi-structured qualitative interviews about experiences with therapy were then conducted and analysed with systematic text condensation and hermeneutic interpretation. Results The analysis revealed four main themes. ‘Exploring oneself’ comprises autonomy and acknowledgment, openness, insight and acceptance of oneself. ‘Therapist relation and characteristics’ includes confidence and trust in and support from the therapist as well as having a trustworthy and experienced therapist. ‘Focusing on everyday life’ includes learning and practical orientation. ‘Time factors’ refers to duration and frequency. Conclusions Together with a supportive and listening therapist, the adolescents improve by exploring themselves within the frames of a time-limited treatment period. Improvement seems to be experienced through better relations to oneself and to others and by finding one’s place in the family, or at school. Adolescents value problem solving and help with concrete challenges. Hence, therapy should be tailored to the needs of adolescents with depression and incorporate the challenges they face in their everyday life.

  According to psychoanalytic and psychodynamic theory, insight is an important mechanism which may lead to better interpersonal functioning. In the present paper we have summarized empirical studies attempting to shed some light on insight as a putative mediator of treatment effects. Two case examples illustrate how improved insight might lead to clinical change.

  Background Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a lifelong condition which carries great cost to society and has an extensive comorbidity. It has been assumed that ADHD is 2 to 5 times more frequent in boys than in girls. Several studies have suggested developmental trajectories that link ADHD and certain personality disorders. The present study investigated the prevalence of ADHD, common Axis I disorders, and their gender differences in a sample of adolescent outpatients. We also wanted to investigate the relationship between ADHD and personality disorders (PDs), as well as how this relationship was influenced by adjustment for Axis I disorders, age and gender. Methods We used a sample consisting of 153 adolescents, aged 14 to 17 years, who were referred to a non-specialized mental health outpatient clinic with a defined catchment area. ADHD, conduct disorder (CD) and other Axis I conditions were assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI). PDs were assessed using the Structured Interview for DSM-IV Personality (SIDP-IV). Results 13.7 % of the adolescents met diagnostic criteria for ADHD, with no significant gender difference. 21.6 % had at least one PD, 17.6 % had CD, and 4.6 % had both ADHD and a PD. There was a significantly elevated number of PD symptoms in adolescents with an ADHD diagnosis (p = 0.001), and this relationship was not significantly weakened when adjusted for age, gender and other Axis I disorders (p = 0.026). Antisocial (χ 2 = 21.18, p = 0.002) and borderline (χ 2 = 6.15, p = 0.042) PDs were significantly more frequent in girls than in boys with ADHD. Conclusions We found no significant gender difference in the prevalence of ADHD in a sample of adolescents referred to a general mental health outpatient clinic. Adolescent girls with ADHD had more PDs than boys, with antisocial and borderline PDs significantly different. The present study suggests that ADHD in girls in a general outpatient population may be more prevalent than previously assumed. It especially highlights the importance of assessing antisocial and borderline personality pathology in adolescent girls presenting with ADHD symptoms.

  Background Substance use disorders (SUDs) constitute a major health problem and are associated with an extensive psychiatric comorbidity. Personality disorders (PDs) and SUDs commonly co-occur. Comorbid PD is characterized by more severe addiction problems and by an unfavorable clinical outcome. The present study investigated the prevalence of SUDs, PDs and common Axis I disorders in a sample of adolescent outpatients. We also investigated the association between PDs and SUDs, and how this association was influenced by adjustment for other Axis I disorders, age and gender. Methods The sample consisted of 153 adolescents, aged 14–17 years, who were referred to a non-specialized mental health outpatient clinic with a defined catchment area. SUDs and other Axis I conditions were assessed using the mini international neuropsychiatric interview. PDs were assessed using the structured interview for DSM-IV personality. Results 18.3 % of the adolescents screened positive for a SUD, with no significant gender difference. There was a highly significant association between number of PD symptoms and having one or more SUDs; this relationship was practically unchanged by adjustment for gender, age and presence of Axis I disorders. For boys, no significant associations between SUDs and specific PDs, conduct disorder (CD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) were found. For girls, there were significant associations between SUD and BPD, negativistic PD, more than one PD, CD and ADHD. Conclusions We found no significant gender difference in the prevalence of SUD in a sample of adolescents referred to a general mental health outpatient clinic. The association between number of PD symptoms and having one or more SUDs was practically unchanged by adjustment for gender, age and presence of one or more Axis I disorders, which suggested that having an increased number of PD symptoms in itself may constitute a risk factor for developing SUDs in adolescence. The association in girls between SUDs and PDs, CD and ADHD raises the question if adolescent girls suffering from these conditions may be especially at risk for developing SUDs. In clinical settings, they should therefore be monitored with particular diligence with regard to their use of psychoactive substances.

  Background: During recent years, there has been an increasing focus on the benefits of the early detection and treatment of personality disorders in adolescents. Previous studies of adults have shown that the number of personality disorder criteria met is negatively correlated with a patient’s quality of life and general functioning. Objective: The aim of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of personality disorders, particularly with regard to the correlation between the number of personality disorder criteria fulfilled and self-perceived quality of life. Distribution according to gender and age in a clinical sample of adolescent outpatients were also considered. Method: This study included 153 adolescents between the ages of 14 and 17 years who were referred to a mental health outpatient clinic. Personality disorders were assessed using the Structured Interview for DSM-IV Personality. Quality of life was assessed using the Youth Quality of Life Instrument - Research Version, which is a 41-item questionnaire that covers broad aspects of quality of life. Axis I disorders were assessed using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview. Results: Results demonstrated that 21.6% of the adolescents met the diagnostic criteria for at least one personality disorder. A relationship between the number of personality disorder criteria met and reduced quality of life was found. No significant gender differences with regard to the prevalence of each of the personality disorders were revealed. Adjustment for the presence of Axis I disorders did not appreciably affect these findings Conclusion: The present study indicates that reduced quality of life as a result of the number of personality disorder criteria met affects adolescents in much the same way that it does adults. This further emphasizes the clinical importance of including quality of life assessment as part of the general diagnostic procedures used with adolescents.

Show summary

  Introduction: Young People (YP) with mental disorders have the highest rates of long-term morbidity and mortality. Mental disorders increase markably in young adulthood: 75% of mental disorders emerge before the age of 25 years but less than half of YP receive appropriate treatment. Recognizing this public health concern, the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) funded the “European Network of Individualized Psychotherapy Treatment of Young People with Mental Disorders” (TREATme). Objectives: To conduct systematic literature reviews elucidating the efficacy of psychotherapeutic interventions for YP diagnosed with mental disorders Methods: Systematic reviews on treatment outcomes for psychotherapeutic interventions targeting specific disorders were performed as part of a larger study. Search strings were created for each disorder group and used in Pubmed and PsychInfo databases followingPRISMAguidelines.Inclusionandexclusioncriteriawere createdfollowingthePICOSmodel.Identifiedpaperswereratedby two independent raters per disorder and the final selection made after consensus was reached. Results: Searches identified 14,021 studies on 9 different mental disorders, duplicates removed n=9980.

Introduction: Young People (YP) with mental disorders have the highest rates of long-term morbidity and mortality. Mental disorders increase markably in young adulthood: 75% of mental disorders emerge before the age of 25 years but less than half of YP receive appropriate treatment. Recognizing this public health concern, the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) funded the “European Network of Individualized Psychotherapy Treatment of Young People with Mental Disorders” (TREATme). Objectives: To conduct systematic literature reviews elucidating the efficacy of psychotherapeutic interventions for YP diagnosed with mental disorders Methods: Systematic reviews on treatment outcomes for psychotherapeutic interventions targeting specific disorders were performed as part of a larger study. Search strings were created for each disorder group and used in Pubmed and PsychInfo databases followingPRISMAguidelines.Inclusionandexclusioncriteriawere createdfollowingthePICOSmodel.Identifiedpaperswereratedby two independent raters per disorder and the final selection made after consensus was reached.

  Dealing with anxiety about Coronavirus, for young people Check out our tops tips for managing anxiety about Coronavirus/ COVID-19. We’ve also created downloadable posters in a variety of languages. Avoid Fake News Try to avoid speculation or sensationalised news and look up reputable sources on the outbreak, such as local government guidlines or the World Health Organisation, who also have country by country breakdown. Limit news about Coronavirus Try to limit how much information you look at in the news and social media. This includes Twitter, Instergam and Facebook. Mute or Unfollow some channls/profiles you follow. Maybe set aside a specific time of day to do a check-in with the current situation. Seek out positive stories Balance out the news, by searching for positive news stories, or recognising things that are positive in your life. WHO recommends to find opportunities to amplify the voices, positive stories and positive images of local people who have experienced the novel coronavirus and there are also other amazing things still happening in the world! Look after yourself, physically and mentally Keep doing things you enjoy, they can also provide distraction, which has long been a useful tool for those with ongoing anxiety issues as it helps redirect your mind off current emotions. For example, yoga, netflix party with friends drawing or even starting a new hobby. You can find a large selection of ideas on the Anna Freud Centre’s SELF-CARE page. Check out youth news If you have more youth related news channels, watch them and check them out as they will probably offer a more relevant take on the situation for you and your peers. Remind yourself that we’re all in this together Remember: you are not alone! Everyone is anxious in various ways about the current state of the world, this is NORMAL and it’s okay Talk about it Talk about your anxieties with friends and family. Like any mental health problems, they only get better if you talk about them. So, stay connected. Volunteer (if it’s safe to do so) Help those in a more difficult situation, such as elderly, or those with chronic illness. Try not to make assumptions Don’t judge people and avoid jumping to conclusions about who is responsible for the spread of the disease or those acting differently. Keep in contact with education and employment If this is impacting your studies or work, make sure to stay in touch with relevant institutions or employment laws in your country. Contact them if you haven’t heard anything. Be kind to yourself and others Above all else, be kind to each other. Try to remember we are in this together, and everyone will be dealing with things in their own way.

Show summary

  Introduction: Substance use disorders (SUD) are a global problem with many health and economic consequences, impacting the user, the mental health system and society at large. Over half of SUD problems begin during adolescence. Treatment approaches and effective management frequently involve psychotherapeutic interventions, which prevents long term morbidity and mortality. Recognizing this public health concern and the need for more empirical based knowledge, the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) funded the ‘European Network of Individualized Psychotherapy Treatment of Young People with Mental Disorders’ (TREATme). Objectives: As part of the aims of TREATme, in this particular study a systematic review of the published literature was conducted to determine the effectiveness of specific psychotherapeutic interventions (PI) in young people (YP) with SUDs. Methods: A systematic review on psychotherapeutic treatment outcomes for specific SUDs in YP was performed. Systematic literature searches were conducted in PubMed and PsycINFO following the PRISMA guidelines, and inclusion and exclusion criteria were created following PICOS model. Two independent raters carried out the ratings of the papers and final selection was made based on the inclusion criteria after reading the full texts and reaching consensus between two autonomous raters. Results: The systemic search generated 2135 papers, of which 577 were included for full-text review following exclusion by title and abstract. A consensus was reached that 212 papers met the inclusion criteria. Conclusions: The findings from this systematic literature review advise which PI may be most effective for each SUD in YP based on research evidence. Conflict of interest: No Keywords

  Stay social This couldn’t be more important! Phone calls are good, but video chats help add an element of physical engagement through facial expressions too. Share how you feel, anxious or happy, play games, watch a film together, have a glass of wine (for those old enough!). There are many online tools to help you do this such as Hangouts, Netflixparty, Zoom and more. Don’t be alone at this time, it is easier going through things together. Get creative with exercise In times of anxiety and difficulty, both of these types of activity can have a huge positive impact. So see what you can find on Youtube, do some digital classes, outdoor running, zumba, dancing to your favourite songs, it is all good. Spend some time outdoors Simple, do your exercise outdoors whilst you still can, with responsible #physicaldistancing, use local nature. Find your routine Keep some sort of routine to your days. Monday – Friday, get up, get dressed, text friends you usually walk to school with, create a study space, have a packed lunch. Treat weekends and evenings the same: keep ‘meeting’ with your sports club, or sewing group etc – doing something virtually social like above. House share If you are doing this whilst living with friends/other people, then if you haven’t already, make a ‘house/flat plan’, including cleaning, cooking and socialising together. Study Create a specific study space for weekdays and for homework. Set up a ‘school’ text/chat group to keep each other motivated and ask each other for help, but try not to let it distract you either. Volunteer (if it’s safe to do so) Help those in a more difficult situation, such as elderly, or those with chronic illness. Be kind to yourself and to others These are extraordinary times, give yourself a break if you are not as motivated as usual. THIS IS OKAY! If a friend is having to self-isolate, make sure you check in with them, maybe post a handwritten note or chocolate through their door (with gloves). Lastly, we are in this together so share what you can, including your love. Make time for fun and positivity Keep putting fun things in your diary, whether that is 1 small activity a day or something bigger to do on weekend – it is really important to have something to look forward to. Recognise your time Lastly, don’t ‘kill time’. This can add a feeling of anxiety in some cases. Be aware of the time you have and enjoy it, spend it with those you love in your house or digitally, but don’t feel like you should be doing more because you have more time.

  Talk about it Make sure to let your friends know the situation, and be honest about how you’re feeling and what you need from them during this time. E.g. more contact, lots of funny ‘memes’, regular video chats, motivation and support. Stay social On top of the above, this is still important to do for general engagement with friends and family. Continue playing games, chatting, watching films together. Dealing with stigma and guilt Whether it is you, or someone else in your house that may be ill, it is important to remove the STIGMA. Remember people often fear what they don’t understand, so it is important we are all educated about COVID19. This is no one’s fault, we are all simply trying our best to not catch it, but it is an invisible enemy, which means it is not always in our control. Support each other during this time AND after. Keep on exercising and being creative Keep doing these types of activities. If you have a garden, make sure to use it where possible, but keep doing what you enjoy, whether that is drawing, yoga, writing, doing video classes, anything that keeps your brain active in this way. Spend some time outdoors If you are fortunate to have a garden, use it. If not, make sure you open your windows as much as you can handle (don’t freeze!) and enjoy the fresh air. Try something new This could be the perfect time, if you feel well enough, to try something new. Learn a dance, try cooking, listen to new music, make a comic about your time in self-isolation – there are endless possibilities. Find your routine Keep some sort of routine to your days if you are well enough (remember you are ill, so you wouldn’t go to school even if you could). Simply try to do some studying in the week, and virtual socialising and clubs on weekends if you can. Remember hygiene Just because you are ill, doesn’t mean you should neglect your hygiene. If possible, treat yourself to a hot bath or try a fancy shower gel and continue other hygiene routines, like shaving or using nice smelling hand cream. However, we also endorse the healing fun of a pyjama day as well, just not every day. House share If you are living with friends/other people, then try, where possible, to make a ‘house/flat plan’, turn to each other for support – including cleaning, cooking as well as alone time and socialising time. Fun and positivity Keep putting fun things in your diary, whether that is 1 small activity a day or something bigger to do on weekend. However, remember to make sure you are resting if you are. Be kind to yourself and others These are extraordinary times, if you are feeling unmotivated, THIS IS OKAY! You may even be unwell, so it is important to rest. Just do what you can, when you feel able to and if you can’t, then just rest.

  Introduction: Mood disorders are amongst the most common groups of mental disorders in young people (YP). Depression may affect 8-20% of all YP and may result in a cascade of negative developmentaloutcomespredictinglong-termmorbidityandpoor functioning.Inviewofthis,theCOSTaction‘EuropeanNetworkof Individualized Psychotherapy Treatment of Young People with Mental Disorders’ (TREATme) was set up to help improve mental health services in YP. Objectives: One of the overarching aims of TREATme is to carry out a systematic review to assess for the effectiveness of psychotherapeutic interventions in YP. In this study, we present results from the systematic review of treatment effectiveness of youth interventions for mood disorders. Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, we systematically searched for clinical trials targeting mood symptoms in YP in PubMed and PsycINFO. The PICOS model was used to define inclusion and exclusion criteria. Included studies were selected by reaching consensus between six independent raters. Results: The systematic search yielded 4181 papers. The title and abstract were reviewed and a consensus was reached to accept 608papersforfull-textreview.Asperinclusioncriteria,aconsensus wasreachedtoinclude91papersintothereviewforeffectivenessof psychotherapeutic interventions in mood disorders. Conclusions: The results of this systematic review provides an overview of the current evidence base of youth psychotherapeutic interventions for mood disorders. Discussion of findings will emphasize the importance of personalizing psychotherapy treatment to target effectively mood disorders in YP.

  Aim: There is an emerging empirical support for the effect of psychodynamic psychotherapy in adolescents. However, there is lack of knowledge in how psychodynamic therapy works for depressed adolescents, how they experience the therapy process and the factors contributing to positive change. Little is known when it comes to adolescent patients’ own experiences of what they found helpful and leading to less symptoms and better interpersonal relationships. The aim of this study was to explore what adolescents themselves recognised as helpful during therapy. Method: An interview guide was developed, focusing on the experiences of the therapy process from the adolescents’ point of view, and what they after treatment identified as helpful factors. Main topics were on how therapy was experienced, what within therapy was helpful – or not so helpful, and how therapy affected important relations and areas in the adolescents’ everyday life. Explorative, semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine, female adolescents. The interviews lasted for approximately one hour, was audio recorded and transcribed verbatim. The transcripts were analysed with thematic content analysis, looking for similarities and differences among the adolescents’ utterances. Results: During the analysis of the transcribed interviews, thematic areas emerged. They were categorised in three main groups with several sub themes. The main areas were Exploring of self, Relational work, and Time. Discussion: Categories and themes will be presented and discussed. Keywords: Psychotherapy change, adolescent depression, patients’ perspective.

  Panel Title: Dynamic mechanism, dynamic change, and the depressed adolescents’ experience of change in psychodynamic therapy. Presenters: Randi Ulberg (Moderator), Elisabeth Ness, Peter Tallberg and André Løvgren, University of Oslo Discussant: eleni.vousoura, Greece. The First Experimental Study of Transference Work–In Teenagers (FEST–IT) is a randomized clinical trial with a dismantling design. The study is aimed to explore the effects of transference work in psychodynamic psychotherapy for adolescents with depression. 70 patients aged 16 to 18 years are randomized to one of two treatment groups with or without focus on transference work. Three papers from FEST-IT will be presented. The first paper focuses on case formulations exploring the dynamic mechanisms using a structured guideline for case formulations. The second presentation investigates whether it is possible to measure dynamic change during therapy using an assessment tool, the Psychodynamic Functioning Scales (PFS), originally developed for adults. The third presentation is a qualitative study on how the young patients experienced psychodynamic psychotherapy.

  Aim: The structured discussion aims at encourage a dialogue among members of TREATME and SPR in Europe on the future direction in youth psychotherapy research. Method: The COST Action TREATME is aimed at establishing a sustainable European multidisciplinary researcher network focusing on individualized psychotherapy for young people with mental disorders. 50% of lifetime mental health disorders start by the age of 14, and the number increases to 75% by the age of 24. Mental disorders in youth are associated with direct and indirect costs including personal distress, costs to family and friends, high healthcare costs, barriers to employment and job performance, poverty and economic deprivation and social exclusion. The “Roadmap for Mental Health Research in Europe” concludes on the need for coordinated and multidisciplinary efforts to improve knowledge on individualized psychological treatment for young people. Psychotherapy works for the most frequent mental disorders such as anxiety and depression. Different psychotherapy modalities work on average equally well. However, little is known about how different treatment modalities work (the mechanisms of change/mediators) and for whom (moderators). Thus, empirically informed individualized treatment cannot be delivered. The panel members presents the focus of the five Working Groups in TREATME: The need for more knowledge on putative moderators and mediators (WGs 1&2), age customized measures and research designs (WGs 3&4), communication with stakeholders on what works for whom and how in youth psychotherapy. Discussion: How can psychotherapy researchers meet the European challenge on improving knowledge on individualized psychotherapy for young people? Keywords: youth psychotherapy, moderators, mediators, age customized process and treatment measures age customized study designs,

  Hva er overføringstolkninger? Hva er overføringsarbeid? Forståelsen av begrepene og metodeanvendelsen i arbeid med overføringsfenomener i behandling av ungdom, variere sterkt. En norsk studie peker i retning av at enkelte undergrupper av voksne pasienter har spesielt god nytte av terapi med overføringsfokus. Forfatterne lurer derfor på om det kan være slik for enkelte ungdommer også. Er det aktuelt å bruke overføringstolkninger i arbeid med ungdom når sentrale temaer viser seg i relasjonen til terapeuten? Kan denne intervensjonsformen brukes i korttidsterapier? Forfatterne prøver å bidra til en begreps-avklaring omkring overføringstolkninger og overføringsarbeid samt når det kan brukes og hvordan.
