"A great aspect is that young people can access the platform at any time. So if a young person is struggling, they have the ability to log onto MOST and to be able to access helpful material whenever they would like."— Jess, clinicianContent tailored to meet needs
When young people first use MOST, they complete a survey about their interests and recent thoughts and experiences. MOST then suggests guided therapy ‘journeys’ for challenges such as depression, anxiety, social anxiety and sleep.
Structured therapy journeys
Journeys are broken into ‘tracks’ or modules consisting of activities, which the young person can work through at their own pace. They also have the option of connecting with a clinician on MOST who can guide and support them to use the therapy content.
Activities use cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), rumination-focused therapy, meta-cognitive therapy, mindfulness, self-compassion and social cognitive interventions.

MOST is a safe space where young people can opt to learn from, share coping strategies and connect with other young people going through similar challenges.
