Canine-assisted Psychotherapy Motivation Alliance

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Motivation, Alliance, Therapeutic

In brief

The aim of the study is to investigate the needed extent and the way a dog is integrated into psychotherapeutic interventions for them to be motivating and alliance building for children and adolescents with psychiatric disorders aged 9 to 17 years old. Specifically, we want to elaborate if the dog needs to be integrated into the therapy in a form that it is part of the therapeutic context or if the presence of the dog without being part of the therapeutic context per se is beneficial.
