The number of young people experiencing online sexual abuse is on the rise. The i-Minds team is developing an app that aims to offer vital tried and tested support to these young people for the first time.<\/p>\n
A safe and accessible intervention to support young people who have experienced online sexual abuse is urgently needed.<\/p>\n
We are working with young people across England and in Edinburgh with lived experience of online sexual abuse to develop and test an app.<\/p>\n
The i-Minds app aims to reduce the risk of further harm and re-victimisation for young people who have experienced online sexual abuse. The app aims to build confidence, resilience, and distress management skills through a technique called mentalisation.<\/p>\n

There is currently no evidence-based support offered to help the increasing number of young people who have experienced online sexual abuse.<\/p>\n The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has recognised as a research priority the identification of effective interventions for the wellbeing and prevention of further harm for young people who have experienced online sexual abuse.<\/p>\n In partnership with young people and a range of stakeholders, i-Minds is addressing this urgent need through developing an app aimed at improving mentalisation \u2013 the ability to understand the thoughts, feelings and intentions in oneself and others.<\/p>\n The uptake and integration of the i-Minds app in health care settings will be maximised through work with NHS mental health services for young people.<\/p>\n The project lasts for 27 months and is being conducted in Greater Manchester and Edinburgh.<\/p>\n Related links:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”Spacing \/ back to top” _builder_version=”3.17.6″]<\/p>\n < Back to top<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”3.0.48″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_cta admin_label=”Feature box: The i-Minds app” _builder_version=”3.17.6″]<\/p>\n The i-Minds app focuses on three main areas:<\/p>\n The app features a multi-media resource section with lots of helpful tips and strategies for taking action, inspiration and soothing, a video library and useful links.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_cta][et_pb_text admin_label=”Spacing only” _builder_version=”3.17.6″]<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding=”3em||0.5em|” parallax_method_1=”off” _builder_version=”3.0.47″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”1_5″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”off”][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”3.0.47″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text: Information for participants” _builder_version=”3.17.6″]<\/p>\n Sexual abuse involves forcing someone to take part in sexual activities, whether that person is aware of what is happening or not. Online sexual abuse of young people is on the rise and has become an important priority for health and social care services.<\/p>\n Online sexual abuse can have serious effects on young people\u2019s development and mental health.<\/p>\n Young people can report this abuse to government agencies and social media companies, but there is little tried and tested support for helpful treatments.<\/p>\n Previous research has shown that a treatment called mentalisation based therapy can be useful for young people. This involves helping you understand your own and other people’s behaviour by making sense of thoughts, feelings and intentions.<\/p>\n Research is needed to find out whether this therapy approach, delivered via an app, helps young people manage the impact of their experiences of online sexual abuse.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_accordion admin_label=”Accordion: How we developed the app” _builder_version=”3.17.6″][et_pb_accordion_item title=”How we developed the app” open=”on” _builder_version=”3.17.6″ title_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” title_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em” body_text_shadow_horizontal_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_vertical_length=”0em” body_text_shadow_blur_strength=”0em”]<\/p>\n We set up three advisory panels consisting of young people who have experienced online sexual abuse, professionals, and national stakeholders.
