This clinical trial aims to evaluate whether a calming virtual reality (VR) experience can reduce office blood pressure (OBP) and anxiety in adults undergoing ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) at Mayo Clinic in Florida. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does a 5-minute calming VR session reduce office blood pressure in patients with suspected white coat hypertension or white coat effect? 2. Does VR exposure reduce self-reported anxiety levels in the clinical setting? 3. Does VR reduce the difference between home (ABPM) and clinic blood pressure readings? Participants will: 1. Complete two short electronic surveys (before and after VR exposure) on a clinic-provided device. 2. Undergo a 5-minute virtual reality (VR) relaxation session. 3. Have their blood pressure measured before and after the VR session. Participation will occur during the participant's scheduled ABPM device return visit and will add approximately 30 minutes to the visit. This is a single-arm, pre-post interventional study where each participant serves as their own control.

Perinatal mental health disorders are the most prevalent perinatal comorbidity and are associated with the primary cause of maternal mortality in the United States (US) - suicide. Diagnosis of a high-risk pregnancy and cesarean delivery (CD) are both associated with increased risk for perinatal mood, anxiety, and trauma symptoms (PMATS). There is a deficit in resources and access to mental health treatment for pregnant patients, with some treatments being cost-prohibitive and requiring multiple sessions. Additionally, current approaches to addressing PMATS are reactive rather than preventive. There is evidence in the non-obstetric population that single-session cognitive behavioral therapy interventions targeting anxiety sensitivity (fear of fear) can prevent the development of anxiety and trauma symptoms when individuals are exposed to trauma. The investigators developed a low-cost, 1-hour, single-session prevention intervention that included psychoeducation about anxiety sensitivity, coupled with a brief exposure to the operating room environment and CD procedures. To revise the implementation plan and intervention (CARE: Communication, Agency, Readiness, Empowerment for cesarean delivery \[CD\]) for use in large L\&D units with a broader population of patients, a fully powered multisite randomized control trial (RCT) is needed. Before initiating such a trial, work needs to be done to modify the intervention and implementation through a process of iterative refinement to enhance the acceptability, appropriateness, and feasibility of implementation in L\&D units across the country, as well as its efficacy at engaging with the target mechanism (anxiety sensitivity). Using a logic model to guide the iterative refinement process through fast feedback loops and an atmosphere of co-creation, study investigators will gather critical input from stakeholders (individuals with lived experiences, community partners, front-line clinicians, and hospital staff) via 12 workgroups, 12 user-testing design sessions, and repeated engagement with a steering council. Following this refinement process, a treatment development pilot RCT at a large L\&D unit will assess the efficacy of CARE for CD by probing engagement with the target mechanism, as well as assess the feasibility of implementation. Finally, the updated logic model and pilot trial results will inform the development of a protocol for a multisite RCT through engagement with expert consultants in a community engagement studio and further feedback from the steering council.

The SEQUOIA-1 study evaluates the effectiveness of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in measuring depression and anxiety severity in adults. Investigators from Deliberate Solutions, Inc. and Baylor College of Medicine are conducting this study to determine whether AI can provide reliable clinical assessments of mood and anxiety disorders. In clinical trials for new depression and anxiety treatments, human clinicians typically conduct interviews to evaluate participants' symptoms. These assessments are critical but may vary based on the clinician's experience or interview style, potentially affecting the reliability of research findings. To address this challenge, the study team developed an AI-based Clinical Outcome Assessment tool, called AI-COA®, which analyzes video interviews to measure symptoms of depression and anxiety consistently and objectively. AI-COA® has been accepted by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) into the Innovative Science and Technology Approaches for New Drugs (ISTAND) pilot program. The primary objectives of the SEQUOIA-1 study are to collect additional data to improve model accuracy and to evaluate model performance across diverse demographic groups. The study also pilots the use of an AI interviewer-an interactive digital agent-to conduct remote assessments. During the study, participants will complete questionnaires about their symptoms and perform brief tasks. Participants will also provide feedback regarding their experience interacting with the AI interviewer. All assessments will be securely video-recorded. Recorded videos will be analyzed by AI-COA® to determine depression and anxiety symptom severity. These results will be compared to assessments conducted by human clinicians. The development and validation of reliable, AI-driven assessment tools through this study aim to enhance the accuracy of mental health evaluations, potentially improving the testing and approval processes for new treatments targeting depression and anxiety.

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is usually treated with antidepressant therapy (ADT); however, sometimes ADTs alone are not enough to adequately treat GAD. The purpose of this study is to assess how safe and effective ABBV-932 is when added to the antidepressant therapies in adult participants with GAD who have had an inadequate response ADTs. ABBV-932 is an investigational drug being developed for the adjunctive treatment of GAD. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive ABBV-932 or Placebo in addition to their currently prescribed ADTs. There is 1 in 3 chance of participants assigned to Placebo. Approximately 315 adult participants with GAD and inadequate response to ADTs will be enrolled in approximately 50 sites in the United States and Puerto Rico. Participants will receive oral capsules of ABBV-932 or matching placebo in addition to their prescribed ADT for 6 weeks and then will be followed for an additional 4 week follow-up period. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

The goal of this study is to better understand the underlying neurobiological basis of anxiety that emerges during abstinence in patients with alcohol use disorder (AUD). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. To characterize anxiety itself as well as anxiety related-neurobiological circuitry in early abstinence in AUD 2. To examine how anxiety and anxiety related-neurobiological circuitry change over the course of abstinence in AUD Researchers will recruit both participants with AUD and healthy volunteers. The participants with AUD will be prescribed disulfiram, a medication that helps participants with AUD stay abstinent. Healthy volunteers will not receive antabuse. Patients with AUD will undergo fMRI scanning both after 1 week and 3 months of disulfiram treatment. Healthy volunteers will undergo fMRI once.
Alcohol Use Disorder
The investigators are conducting a clinical trial of therapy for public speaking anxiety. There are many eligibility criteria, but the main ones are that participants need to be socially anxious and have public speaking anxiety. In this clinical trial, all participants will do exposure therapy. Before doing exposure therapy in the study, though, participants will be randomized to do one of two treatments: i) a positive mood treatment, which is designed to increase how positive people feel, and ii) a relaxation treatment, which is designed to help people feel more relaxed. The investigators are doing this study to see whether doing the positive mood treatment or relaxation treatment first will affect how well exposure therapy works.

The purpose of the proposed study is to test the feasibility and efficacy of a "anxiety-focused" text-delivered counseling program to reduce anxiety symptoms among young adults (18-25) with elevated anxiety symptoms. We are primarily interested in whether the intervention will reduce anxiety. We have adapted an effective in-person, manualized cognitive behavioral therapy treatment for anxiety (Muñoz et al, 2000) into an 8-week, text-delivered anxiety treatment, named CBT-txt-Anxiety. We will test this with 100 young adults who will be randomized to either CBTtxt-Anxiety or waitlist control condition and assessed at baseline, and at 1- month, 2-months, and 3-months post-baseline.

Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD)
Background: Anxiety disorders are becoming more common among children and teenagers. Anxiety can lead to long-term physical and mental problems, such as depression. Treatments for anxiety disorders include medications as well as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT); CBT is a form of talking therapy. Both approaches work in only about 50 percent of cases. A new approach, called gaze-contingent music reward therapy (GCMRT), may help. Objective: To find out whether GCMRT combined with CBT is more effective than CBT alone. Eligibility: Children aged 8 to 17 years with separation anxiety disorder; generalized anxiety disorder; or social anxiety disorder. They must be enrolled in protocol 01-M-0192. Design: Participants will come to the clinic once a week for 4 weeks for CBT. Sometimes the participant will meet with the doctor alone; sometimes their parent may be present. They will do some computer-based tasks: They may be asked to push a button when a target appears; they may look at pictures of faces while the computer tracks their eye movements. Participants will take questionnaires each week. They will answer questions about their anxiety symptoms, feelings, and behavior. For the next 8 weeks, participants will participate in both CBT and 1 of 2 types of GCMRT. GCMRT is a computer-based task. Participants will look at pictures with many faces in them; while they do this, pleasant music will play and stop playing over a 12-minute period. Participants will have a final visit in week 13. They will take questionnaires. They will do final research tasks. Each visit lasts about 2 hours....

Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety is very common in autistic youth. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the recommended treatment for both autistic and typically-developing (TD) youth with anxiety, yet most families cannot access CBT due to cost, practicalities of attending in-person treatment sessions, and a shortage of trained providers, especially in rural areas. The goal of this project is to increase access to care for families of autistic adolescents with anxiety through an internet-based treatment model.

Anxiety
Generalized anxiety disorder is a mental health disorder characterized by feelings of tension and worry with physical symptoms including increased blood pressure. Approximately 20% of US adults reported an anxiety disorder in the past year and an estimated 31% of US adults reported anxiety at some time in their lives. Anxiety can be experienced throughout one's life and levels of anxiety can increase with stressful life events, physical health conditions, and medication use. Chronic, untreated anxiety has been linked to headaches, dizziness, depression, high blood pressure, heart disease, digestive disorders, and a worsened immune system - greatly impacting one's overall quality of life (QOL). Anxiety and depression are highly comorbid, with approximately 50-60% of those with anxiety symptoms also experiencing depression symptoms. Experiencing these disorders and symptoms comorbidly may further worsen one's mental health and overall QOL. Untreated, chronic depression can heighten symptoms of depression leading to increased risk of heart disease, sleep disruptions, weight gain/loss, a weakened immune system, physical pains, and suicide attempts. Anxiety and depression are commonly treated using various psychotherapeutic techniques including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and acceptance and commitment therapy techniques administered by a licensed therapist. However, therapy has many barriers to treatment including insurance not covering treatments, overall treatment cost, unsure where to seek treatment/no access to a therapist, and therapy being unavailable and inconvenient due to scheduling during the workday. As such, app-based mental health tools have increased in popularity to improve access and affordability to effective mental health treatments. The purpose of the study is to examine the effectiveness of a guided anxiety/depression app-based program by Headspace, which uses CBT with mindfulness to improve anxiety and depression symptoms in a population with elevated baseline anxiety and/or depression. The study will employ a 2-arm app-based intervention involving 1 active intervention and a waitlist control for a duration of 3 weeks, followed by a 3-week follow-up assessment.
