Improving Personal Recovery After Depression with a Blended Module (STAIRS)

STAIRS is a 8-week program, in which 8 different themes are addressed. Coverage of each theme starts with a group meeting guided by a professional and expert by experience. In these meetings different exercises are done (e.g., filling out an actual and desired week-schedule, role-playing a difficult situation), information is given and experiences are shared. Between meetings, participants can choose from a range of homework exercises to practice their desired skills in a tailored way. In addition, participants can share experiences with the other group members and exchange reactions using a private online community.
