NCT ID NCT06804954
First seen Aug 17, 2026 · Last updated Aug 17, 2026
Summary
This trial tests whether an internet-based cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) program can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress in adults with mild mental health issues who visit primary care. Participants are randomly assigned to either the online CBT program, which includes modules and therapist feedback, or to usual primary care. The study compares changes in symptom scores over time to see if the online approach offers added benefit.
