Interventions

  • Culturally-attuned digital tools — OTHER
    The intervention includes clinicians receiving training to provide culturally-attuned mental health services to their clients through the use of digital tools. The digital tools include (a) digital worksheets designed to guide clients to explore and address sociocultural stressors, and (b) podcasts that help inform empirical knowledge on these issues. Clinicians are provided training how how they can effectively employ these digital tools with their clients to enhance their work, particularly regarding presenting concerns related to sociocultural stressors.

Study Details

Aim 1: Assess clinicians' receptiveness and potential use of Anise's online platform digital tools for managing sociocultural stressors and revise the tools for implementation. We will recruit 8 new clinicians (intervention group) who will receive training and provide feedback on the digital tools. Aim 2: Evaluate the initial efficacy of the online platform digital tools for managing the impact of sociocultural stressors with 64 Asian American clients. The intervention group clinicians (receiving training and using the digital tools) and newly recruited 8 clinicians (not receiving training and not using the digital tools) for the control group will work with 4 clients each. The clinical outcome data of the clients will be analyzed to examine differences in the client prognosis between the control and intervention group. A successful outcome of this project will be digital materials that effectively address the impact of sociocultural stressors for Asian Americans on Anise Health's digital health platform.

    Eight clinicians new to the Anise Health digital mental health platform will be recruited to provide 12 weeks of mental health services to 4 clients each. The clinicians will provide clinical data that will be analyzed in comparison to the intervention group.
  • Experimental: Intervention group
    Eight clinicians new to the Anise Health digital mental health platform will be recruited to receive training to use digital tools developed to enhance their work on racial trauma, bicultural tension, and intergenerational conflict. They will then use these tools while providing 12 weeks of mental health services to 4 clients each. The clinicians will provide clinical data that will be analyzed in comparison to the intervention group.
