The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of an online stress recovery intervention for healthcare workers receiving therapist-assisted or on-demand support.
The intervention will be delivered as an online stress recovery program for healthcare workers, consisting of six modules. Modules include an introduction, psychological detachment, distancing, mastery, control, and keeping the change alive. These modules have been chosen after considering themes that could be most useful for healthcare workers under high stress. Each module consists of a psychoeducational and an exercise component. During the program, a therapist provides individual feedback on the exercises completed and can also be available on request.
The effect of the intervention will be compared with a control group that will use the program with support on-demand. The intervention will be delivered in Lithuanian.
