Summary
This study tests a program called LiveWell, which teaches emotional coping skills to people with metastatic lung cancer who are feeling anxious or depressed. About 80 participants will either take the program or receive usual care. The goal is to see if the program is practical, helpful, and reduces distress while improving quality of life.
