Book excerpt: Self-help Plus (SH+) is a WHO developed multimedia, guided self-help stress management course delivered over a period of five weeks to groups of up to 30 people at a time. It is delivered by supervised, non-specialist facilitators who complete a short training course and use pre-recorded audio and an illustrated guide (called Doing What Matters in Times of Stress – An Illustrated Guide) to teach stress management skills. The course is suitable for anyone who experiences stress, wherever they live and whatever their circumstances. The format of SH+ also makes it well suited for use alongside other mental health interventions, as a first step in a stepped care programme, or as a community intervention delivered alongside broader community programming.
