Introduction: Mental health in youths is a serious problem, due to high prevalence of emotional disorders in children and adolescents (see Collishaw, Maughan, Natarajan, & Pickles, 2010). Although there are effective treatments, the access to them is limited by a number of barriers. Given that adolescents are major computer and technology gadget users, currently there is an increased interest to use online games, based on scientific evidence, for prevention and treatment of teenager's emotional disorders. Methods: RETh ink project aims to overcome the accessibility barrier by designing, developing, and evaluating a therapeutic video game, accessible over the Internet, meant to be used primarily as a standalone application to promote emotional resilience in children and adolescents aged 10 to 16 years. An important development aspect of this project is that the psychological contents of the therapeutic game are tested for their suitability. This study aims to conduct focus groups with students (children and adolescents) and mental health professionals (clinical psychologists, psychotherapists, psychiatrists).
