Summary

This trial will explore online tools to help parents cope with strong emotions, like an online class. #mentalhealth #parenting

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking parents in the U.S. with a child aged 6-17 who has had mental health counseling within the last 6 months. Parents should have access to an internet-connected device but not be currently receiving psychotherapy themselves and report low distress tolerance.
What is being tested?
The study compares two online, one-session interventions without a therapist: 'Parents THRIVE' and 'Sharing Feelings Project'. It aims to see how these programs help parents manage strong emotions.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-clinical interventions like online training or classes, there are no direct medical side effects; however, participants may experience emotional discomfort while learning to cope with distress.
