Module	Module description
Week 1: What's mi.spot all about?	This week provides an orientation to the intervention and various cognitive-based strategies to help participants identify unhelpful thinking patterns, reframe these in a more constructive manner, and regulate emotions. Time is spent practising these strategies.
Week 2: Learning about mental health and mental illness	Participants are offered the opportunity to ask questions about mental health and illness, with a particular focus on their parent's illness, or substance use problem. They are encouraged to discuss how their parents' illness or substance use problem may impact their own health and wellbeing. Information about generic vulnerabilities is provided with an emphasis on ways to promote mental health and wellbeing.
Week 3: Me, my parent and other relationships	Participants are encouraged to reflect on their current relationship with their parent, and how the dynamics of the parent-child relationship might influence other relationships. Strategies for healthy boundary setting are discussed.
Week 4: Managing stress	Participants are invited to identify current stressor/s and as a group, discuss adaptive coping strategies.
Week 5: Caring—who, me?	Participants are asked to identify ways they might look after themselves (i.e., physically and emotionally), the barriers to self-care, and how these might be overcome. Their caring responsibilities are discussed and integrated with the prior module on boundary setting in relationships.
Week 6: Taking control of my life	The final module consists of a general overview of key aspects of previous modules. It emphasizes strengths, provides recommendations for self-care, and encourages help seeking and the continued use of adaptive appraisal strategies.
