This study utilized the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) to investigate the life satisfaction of caregivers for youth receiving mental health services (N = 383), specifically how it relates to youth symptom severity throughout treatment. Hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) with a time-varying covariate was used to estimate the linear trajectory of caregiver life satisfaction and how it relates to youth symptom severity as rated by caregivers, youth, and clinicians. Initial caregiver life satisfaction was inversely related to caregiver and clinician rated youth symptom severity. Additionally, subsequent caregiver life satisfaction demonstrated a small but significant relationship to changes in youth symptom severity during treatment where a decrease in youth symptoms corresponded to an increase in caregiver life satisfaction, and vice versa. Caregiver background characteristics related to higher life satisfaction include being: married, a birth-parent, under 40 years old and having the absence of previous diagnoses of an emotional, behavioral or substance use disorder. Caregivers of clinically-referred youth report low levels of life satisfaction throughout youth treatment. Given the bi-directional influences on one another, tending to the well-being of caregivers may positively influence both caregivers and youths.
