Doel van het onderzoek
Firstly this study tries to answer the question whether applying well-being therapy to outpatients with a mild affective disorder in Dutch mental health care, reveals a trend in which well-being is increased and psychiatric complaints are reduced.
Secondly the intention is to learn more about the experiences of the participants (patients as well as therapists) with this new form of therapy, to be able to carry out further development and adjustments if necessary.
The outcome of this study can be used to account for a randomized controlled trail.

In total participants will spend a maximum of 75 minutes on the questionnaires over a period of 6 months.

Onderzoeksproduct en/of interventie
