“…For example, interventions targeted youth exposed to intimate partner violence (IPV; n = 1), who were anticipating medical procedures, such as chemotherapy ( n = 3) and who had recently suffered a parental bereavement ( n = 2). The shortest duration of therapy was two days (Dolgin, ), whilst the longest period of therapeutic intervention was 13 months (Ford & Nangle, ).…”

Background Life events are recognised to link low socio‐economic status (SES) with impaired mental health. Despite attention to patients’ historical environmental circumstances in psychotherapeutic practice, events that occur over the course of counselling and psychotherapy (‘intercurrent’ events) seem to have received little attention in research. Method Life events were defined to include those that are chronic and severe, as well as minor, everyday occurrences. Outcomes were restricted to internalising problems related to depression and anxiety in child, or adolescent participants. Bibliographic databases and citations and review reference lists were searched, and relevant scholars were contacted. The conceptual and methodological nature of the literature is reported. Results This review included 42 studies. Intercurrent events varied in severity and duration. Events were most frequently measured using questionnaires. The same questionnaire was rarely used in more than one study, and questionnaires were often adapted for use for the study's purpose/population. Events included in analyses tended to be analysed as a mediator of change in psychiatric symptomatology, or an outcome of therapy. Conclusions Attention to intercurrent life events appears rare in psychotherapy research. This contributes to a systematic neglect of socio‐economic issues in psychotherapy research and arguably psychotherapy more generally. This neglect is exacerbated by a lack of agreed measures of life events, both intensive and routine in nature. Recommendations are made to improve attention to such events.

“…The importance of peers in interpersonal relationships increases during adolescence (Gifford-Smith & Brownell, 2003 ). The needs for trust, love and appraisal are met by family members in childhood, whereas these needs are more likely to be met by friends in adolescence (Dolgin, 2014 ). Adolescents with healthy peer relationships experience less emotional disorder, behavior problems (Roseth et al, 2008 ), and lower feelings of loneliness (Parker & Asher, 1993 ).…”

The current study examined the effects of Internet usage characteristics and peer perception on loneliness. The mediating role of Internet usage characteristics was examined in the relationship between loneliness and peer perception. The sample included 661 Turkish adolescents (N girls =379, 57.34%; N gifted = 211, 31.92%) aged 11–18 years. Structural equation model analyzes were conducted to test the hypothesis model across the group. Moreover, multigroup structural model was conducted to test the differences of the relationships across gifted and normally developing adolescents. The results of the structural model showed that Internet use characteristics did not have a mediating role in the relationship between adolescents’ peer perception and loneliness. On the other hand, problematic Internet use had a full mediator role in the relationship between fear of missing out and loneliness. The results of the multigroup structural model emphasized the similar effects between the research variables in gifted and normally developing adolescents. The results were discussed with the effects of Internet use characteristics and peer perception on loneliness. We also pointed out that gifted and normally developing adolescents have similar social and technological outcomes and that these outcomes influence mental health.

“…"Theoretical frame-works and explanatory models of why and how adventure programming works rarely give sufficient credit to how simply "being in nature" can contribute to personal development, healing, and therapeutic success" (Beringer, 2004, p. 52). "Studies evaluating wilderness therapies have shown them to be effective treatment processes for young people with behavioral, psychological, and psychosocial issues, while also showcasing wilderness therapy's capacity for prevention and use in early intervention strategies" (Bettmann et al, 2016;Bowen et al, 2016;Combs et al, 2016;Dolgin, 2014;Norton et al, 2014).…”

Nature: the cure we've been looking for

Nature-based therapy is a therapeutic lens that utilizes nature as a co-therapist. This approach addresses the disconnect between land and people, a disconnect that negatively impacts the mental health of many of those seeking mental health services. Consequently, this approach is now considered an effective treatment for youth and is used as a standalone approach or integrated with cognitive behavioural therapy, gestalt, or group therapy. In either case, this nature-based lens provides a bridge between traditional Indigenous practices and Western psychology. My project highlights various activities and ideas in order to incorporate nature into one’s practice as a therapist, specifically within a northern context. Information regarding benefits, ethical concerns and various types of nature-based therapy will be discussed and guide the development of the manual. The guidebook will assist those interested in nature therapy by creating a place where tangible and realistic ideas for how to incorporate it into practice are located.
