WellPATH-PREVENT is a novel tablet-app intervention that aims to reduce suicide risk by employing simplified, personalized, easy to administer and use, cognitive reappraisal strategies during emotional crises and at scheduled brief training sessions. The WellPATH-PREVENT intervention is based on the assumptions that using personalized cognitive reappraisal techniques during an emotional storm, and practicing these techniques during scheduled training sessions will increase cognitive reappraisal ability and reduce suicide risk. WellPATH-PREVENT focuses on middle-aged and older adults at risk of suicide.
