Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Participants will:
  • Be able to speak and read English as a first language
  • Be registered at a participating GP surgery and be due to remain at the surgery until the study's completion
  • Provide informed consent to participate in the study
  • Be 18 years of age or older
  • Be able to complete outcome measures
  • Score above 10 on an initial core outcome measure
  • Express that they are having a difficulty with which they would like help.

Exclusion

  • Participants will not:
  • Have a mental health difficulty with a confirmed and known organic or neurological foundation
  • Be under drug and alcohol services for a substance misuse problem
  • Be experiencing active psychosis
  • Be under secondary care services for a mental health difficulty
  • Express that they have had plans or intentions to end their life or to harm themselves over the month before recruitment
  • Express that they have attempted to harm themselves in the month before recruitment
  • Express that they have attempted to end their life in the year before recruitment
  • Be unable to travel to their GP surgery for their session.
  • Individuals who do not meet the study's inclusion criteria will be unable to participate in the research.
  • It is worth clarifying the reason that participants must be able to speak English as a first language. MOL involves the therapist asking their interlocutor to articulate their thoughts in the present moment. This could entail participants being interrupted in order that the therapist can ask about background thoughts that may be pertinent to the difficulty being discussed. The presence of English as a first language as an inclusion criterion is a way of ensuring sufficient English language skills for this process to take place.
