Summary
This study tested two types of talk therapy—acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) and cognitive behavioral stress management (CBSM)—to see if they help caregivers of cancer patients feel less fear, stress, and fatigue. 66 caregivers were split into three groups: one received ACT, one received CBSM, and one received no therapy. Both therapies involved eight sessions over four weeks. The goal was to improve quality of life and reduce psychological distress.
