Participants were randomly assigned to either the intervention group (IG, access to the Mika-App), or the wait-list control group (CG, usual care). Online questionnaires were administered at baseline, 2, 6 and 12 weeks. Physical and mental QoL was assessed with the Short-Form Health Survey (SF-8).

Counseling is delivered through widely used messaging platforms (e.g., WhatsApp, SMS, and since August 2025 web-based chat) and addresses a range of issues, including psychological distress, suicidal ideation, bullying, experiences of violence, and familial conflicts. This review article synthesizes and contextualizes current empirical findings on the use and impact of krisenchat. The available data indicate high feasibility and broad acceptance of the service among the target population. There is substantial evidence for a pronounced demand for low-threshold, 24/7 messenger-based counseling options for young people in crisis situations within the German-speaking context. The service appears to be effective across diverse age groups, topics, and presenting concerns. User feedback is very positive, with over 85% of users indicating they would recommend the service to others in need. In addition, krisenchat appears to fulfill a crucial gatekeeping function by providing psychoeducational information and facilitating referrals to formal health and support systems. Notably, a significant proportion of users-many of whom report severe psychological symptoms-had not previously accessed professional mental health services. At present, krisenchat represents the only digital counseling service in the German-speaking region that is accessible to young people outside of regular service hours, including evenings and weekends. These findings underscore its essential role in bridging existing gaps in the mental health care system for youth.</p>","PeriodicalId":47315,"journal":{"name":"Psychotherapie Psychosomatik Medizinische Psychologie","volume":" ","pages":"421-428"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146067538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In ICD-11, adjustment disorder (AjD) is defined as a psychological response to identifiable stressors following stressful life events, characterized by preoccupation and failure to adapt.

It was hypothesized that work-related AjD would be associated with a less favorable socio-medical course. Methods. A clinical sample of inpatients undergoing psychosomatic rehabilitation (N=1028) completed self-report questionnaires at the beginning and end of rehabilitation (ADNM-20, BDI-II, HEALTH-49). Socio-medical parameters were additionally assessed. Participants were grouped according to the primary trigger domain (work, family, own severe illness). Group comparisons were conducted for symptom severity, symptom change over the course of rehabilitation, and socio-medical evaluations. Results. Occupational stressors were the most frequent triggers of AjD (32.8%), followed by one's own severe illness (22.7%) and family conflicts (14.5%). Overall symptom burden differed only marginally between groups. Family-related AjD was associated with particularly low perceived social support, whereas AjD triggered by severe somatic illness was characterized by more pronounced anxiety symptoms.

This manuscript examines the opportunities, risks, and limitations of such technologies, taking into account relational process factors as well as clinical outcomes and real-world conditions of care delivery. AI-supported systems can help bridge waiting times, provide low-threshold psychoeducational interventions, promote motivation, symptom stabilization, and treatment engagement, and facilitate access for underserved or difficult-to-reach patient populations. They offer flexible, location- and time-independent support, strengthen self-efficacy, and may help reduce stigma-related barriers. At the same time, several risks must be considered: potential limitations in the therapeutic alliance between patients and therapists, parasocial substitution, increased social isolation, the emergence of a potential two-tier healthcare system, and ethical challenges associated with unforeseen deteriorations in patients' conditions. Evidence-based studies, including randomized controlled trials and meta-analyses, demonstrate moderate but consistent improvements in symptoms of depression, anxiety, and loneliness, as well as positive effects in resource-limited settings and waiting-list contexts. The manuscript emphasizes that the effectiveness of AI systems can only be fully realized through their integration with human therapeutic support, ethical reflection, and appropriate structural implementation conditions.
