The UP-C: Emotion Detectives is a transdiagnostic and emotion-focused cognitive-behavioral group intervention for children (6-13 years) with emotions disorders (i.e., anxious and/or depressive).

It aims to reduce the intensity and frequency of strong and aversive emotional experiences in children, by helping them learn how to confront those emotions and respond to them in more adaptive ways. It includes cognitive-behavioral and mindfulness techniques for parents and children.
