Pilot Study of Motivational Interviewing for Loved Ones

Boston Medical Center·interventional·Posted Jul 8, 2019·Updated Apr 7, 2023

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Motivational Interviewing for Loved Ones (MILO) and Mental Health Services Consultation and Waitlist for Psychotic Disorders and 2 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 71 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The study population for this research will include parents and concerned significant others (PCSO) of individuals experiencing recent (past five years) onset of a psychotic disorder (hereafter referred to as individuals with psychosis, "IP") who are not currently engaged with, or at risk for disengagement from, treatment. MILO is a brief and structured intervention that teaches motivational interviewing communication strategies. The initial aim (phase 1) of this pilot study is to evaluate feasibility of the intervention. The secondary aims are to evaluate the effectiveness of MILO for (1) enhancing the engagement of IP with evidence-based treatments and (2) reducing distress among PCSO. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will be superior to control condition for both enhancing IP engagement with mental health services and reducing PCSO distress.
