Group CBT in Parents of Children With Food Allergy

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Parents of children with food allergies that are medically established will be able to participate in 6 one-hour weekly virtual Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) groups, and outcomes will be measured for anxiety, depression and quality of life. Possible benefits include improvement in psychological functioning and quality of life of families, as well as improved understanding of the use of group Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for parents of children with medically established food allergies.
