ACT With CF Self-Help Toolkit for Anxiety and Depression in Adults with Cystic Fibrosis
This study is testing a self-help program called the ACT with CF Self-Help Toolkit for adults with cystic fibrosis (CF) who also experience anxiety or depression. The toolkit uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a type of talk therapy, to help you manage difficult feelings and engage in positive behaviors. Researchers want to see if this self-help toolkit can reduce anxiety and depression and improve your psychological flexibility (your ability to adapt to changing situations). You may be eligible if you are 18 or older, have CF, and have certain scores on anxiety or depression questionnaires. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and aims to enroll 60 participants.
- Study design

- What's involved
- Participants will learn new ways to manage uncomfortable experiences and feelings through 6 main modules, each with 3 or 4 short videos. Anxiety, depression, and psychological flexibility will be measured at baseline, 6 weeks, and 3 months.
