Summary

This study tests an 8-week internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) program for people with mild to moderate depression or anxiety linked to their financial situation. Fifty adults in Sweden will receive weekly online modules and therapist guidance. Researchers will measure changes in financial distress, depression, and anxiety up to two years after treatment.

What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a practical, accessible therapy for people struggling with mental health symptoms tied to financial stress.
What could go wrong
