Study Summary

This trial seeks to improve effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in Washington State mental health centers through coaching psychotherapists for better outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for clinical supervisors and psychotherapists working in community mental health centers (CMHCs) in Washington State. Supervisors must be part of a CMHC that's agreed to join the study and have been involved in the Initiative. Clinicians don't need their CMHC leadership's agreement to participate. However, supervisors from Aim 1 can't be coached in Aim 2.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing an optimized supervisor-led coaching strategy designed to improve how therapists use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). It aims to better adoption and correct application of this evidence-based practice within CMHCs through enhanced coaching methods.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves professional training rather than medical or pharmaceutical interventions, it does not have side effects like those associated with drugs or medical procedures.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Supervisor-led Implementation CoachingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The structure of this arm will depend on Aim 1. However, we imagine that peer supervisors leading implementation coaching, trained in Aim 1, will have 3-5 virtual meetings with supervisors and email communication. Meetings focus on orientation to the theory and rationale for Coaching and supervisors' role as frontline leaders to support EBP implementation. Meetings are likely over 6 months and focus on different implementation phases. Coaches will support supervisors in developing tailored workplans for implementation in their CMHCs. In each meeting, the coach will review the strategies in the workplan, provide examples of how the strategy could be specified, and then facilitate discussion among supervisors. The coach will support supervisors in building a tailored workplan for their CMHC. Supervisors in the Coaching condition receive Coaching plus standard Initiative Implementation support.
Group II: Standard/As Usual CBT+/EBP Initiative ImplementationActive Control1 Intervention
All CMHCs involved in the CBT+/EBP Initiative receive virtual clinician training, CBT-phone consultation options over 6-months, access to a supervisor monthly call, listservs (one supervisor-focused), and a yearly advanced clinical training and supervisor training. The Initiative is a program that has been ongoing since 2009.
