Using a Psychosocial Transitional Group to Improve Adaptation, Coping and Mental Health Outcomes Following Limb Loss

The SEGT approach fosters mutual support, promotes openness and emotional expression. SEGT will be delivered and co-facilitated by a psychiatrist and an allied healthcare professional. It is a 6-module program held over a 3-week period (approximately 2 hour sessions X 2 week) that is framed within social cognitive theory, whereby resilience to adversity (limb loss in this instance) relies on personal enablement.
