Summary

This study tests whether a single 60-minute counseling session can reduce anxiety and depression in breast cancer patients who are waiting for ongoing therapy. About 26 participants will receive the session plus a booklet, and researchers will measure how helpful and practical it is. The goal is to see if this brief support can improve quality of life during a stressful wait.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Single Counseling Session
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a quick, practical way to help breast cancer patients manage distress while they wait for ongoing therapy.
What could go wrong
This is a very small pilot study (26 people) with no control group, so results may not be generalizable. The benefit may be minimal or short-lived.
