Transdiagnostic interventions are efficient treatments for common youth mental health concerns and may be particularly well suited for school-based practice. School psychologists often struggle to find time to implement all of the services they are trained in, leading to feelings of professional dissatisfaction. Transdiagnostic interventions, which apply the same treatment principles across mental disorders, can be a solution to this problem. They work by leveraging shared components and can be delivered in a brief and flexible format. Research supports the effectiveness of transdiagnostic interventions for reducing internalizing concerns in youth. School psychologists should consider incorporating transdiagnostic interventions into their practice to widen their impact and provide efficient and effective mental health support to students.
