Summary

This study tested whether a 6-week group therapy program (cognitive behaviour therapy) could help reduce anxiety and stress in pregnant women and new mothers. 72 women from Manitoba, Canada, who were pregnant or within 12 months postpartum and had an anxiety disorder took part. The therapy was delivered online and focused on understanding anxiety, self-care, facing fears, bonding with baby, and preventing relapse. The goal was to see if this approach improves mental health for mothers and their babies.
