The objective of the current study is to describe the experience of creating and utilizing a transdiagnostic group-intervention protocol with emphasis in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and Dialectic-Behavior Therapy using digital technologies. There has been a need to adapt mental health care to a virtual format as a consequence of the COVD-19 pandemic. For this purpose, eight weekly virtual meetings were elaborated for the management of stress and quality of life. The themes approached were: 1) anxiety, 2) insomnia and nightmares, 3) self-esteem and pleasant activities, 4) regulation of intense emotions, 5) anger and assertiveness, 6) depression and bereavement, 7) shame, guilt, and validation, 8) productive and unproductive worries. From June 6, 2020, to November 20, 2021, 6 groups of 8 meetings each were held, totaling 1026 participations. The use of remote conference technologies reduced de barrier of distance, admitting to meetings both the professional team and participants, despite their locations. It has also been observed that this format increased accessibility and coverage, allowing a greater number of people to benefit from interventions to improve their quality of life.
