Summary
This study tests whether a web-based program called autimia, which uses cognitive behavioral therapy techniques, can help adults with autism spectrum disorder manage stress and improve their well-being. About 236 participants will either use autimia plus their usual care, or just usual care alone. Researchers will measure changes in stress, anxiety, and depression after three and six months.
