Improving Functioning Among Aging Women Veterans
This study is testing a special type of talk therapy called Tailored Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Menopause (CBT-Meno) for women veterans experiencing menopause symptoms. This therapy helps you learn ways to cope with common menopause symptoms and experiences. You may be able to join if you are a woman veteran aged 45 or older, receive care at the VA Maryland Healthcare System, have at least one moderate or two mild menopause symptoms, and can do telehealth appointments. The study aims to see how satisfied participants are with the therapy and how many people join and complete the study. The current recruitment status is unclear.

What this trial measures
- Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8)Post-treatment, approximately 12 weeks
To examine acceptability, the investigators will collect satisfaction ratings via the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8) at post-treatment assessment. The CSQ-8 contains eight Likert scale items that ask about quality of service received and if services have been helpful and provides an overall score. Reliability/validity for the measure is good. The minimum score is 8 and the maximum score is 32, with greater scores indicating more client satisfaction.
- RecruitmentAt completion of study recruitment, approximately 1.5 years
As a measure of feasibility, the investigators will evaluate recruitment by calculating the number of eligible participants (e.g., those that passed screening) divided by the number of potential participants that were approached for recruitment (# eligible ÷ # approached).
- Retention RateFollowing completion of all intervention groups, approximately 2 years
As a measure of feasibility, investigators will calculate retention rates defined as the percentage of enrolled participants who attend first 2 sessions ("engaged").
- Outreach EffortsThroughout intervention delivery, approximately 2 years
As a measure of feasibility, investigators will examine our study outreach efforts by calculating the mean number of reminders and outreach contacts made for each participant during the course of treatment.
- Suitability of EligibilityAt completion of study recruitment, approximately 1.5 years
As a measure of feasibility, the investigators will evaluate suitability of eligibility criteria by calculating the number of participants enrolled in the study divided by the number eligible (e.g., those that passed screening;# enrolled ÷ # eligible).
- Adherence rateFollowing completion of all intervention groups, approximately 2 years
As a measure of feasibility, investigators will calculate the adherence rate measured by treatment dropout percentages. This will be calculated as the number of participants who dropped out prior to completing treatment divided by the number who engaged (i.e., "engaged" = enrolled participants who attend first 2 sessions; #who dropped out prior to completing treatment ÷ # who engaged).
