TGNB CARE Mentalizing-Focused Parenting Groups (TGNB-CARE)
Stopped early · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Parent-Child Relations
In brief
The primary objective of this pilot intervention study is to build upon the Connecting and Reflecting Experience (CARE) clinical trial \[Clinical Trials Number: NCT04580459\] and evaluate the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary outcomes of CARE when implemented via tele-health among caregivers of transgender and nonbinary (TGNB) youth (TGNB-CARE). The main questions it aims to answer are: * To determine the feasibility and acceptability of the CARE treatment adaptation for caregivers of TGNB youth following the 12-session, mentalizing-focused, group parenting intervention. The study team hypothesizes that the adaptation and implementation of the CARE intervention will be found to be feasible and acceptable for study participants. * To assess whether self-reported parenting stress and stressors, parental acceptance, parental reflective functioning, parent positive feelings, and perceived interpersonal support improve among study participants following the 12-session, mentalizing-focused, group parenting intervention. The study team hypothesizes that the CARE treatment group adaptation will show improvements across these outcomes. Caregivers will be asked to complete surveys at baseline (T0), following their first session (T1), and at post-intervention (T2). A feedback interview will also be completed at T2.
