An Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Psychoeducation Single Session Intervention on Childhood Anxiety for Carers of Children With a Long-Term Health Condition
Sponsor: University of East Anglia
Summary
The goal of this feasibility study was to assess the acceptability and feasibility of the ACT-based training package for carers of children with a long-term health condition (LTHC) who also experience anxiety. The main aims were to answer: Is the intervention feasible? Is the intervention acceptable? The secondary aim were to answer: Does the intervention impact how carers approach and manage their child's anxiety? Participants completed two questionnaires, prior to watching the online training videos. They were then asked to complete another questionnaire. Two weeks later, participants were contacted via email to complete two questionnaires, one of which was a repeat from prior to completing the training.
