New online therapy shows promise for easing cancer Survivors' mental health struggles

This study tests whether a 6-week online program based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) can help cancer survivors who have finished treatment feel less anxious and depressed. 32 survivors of breast, colon, or rectal cancer will be randomly assigned to either the online therapy or a waiting list. Researchers will measure changes in anxiety, depression, and psychological flexibility up to one year later.
