Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT)-Based Group Intervention to Reduce Inflammation in Older People With HIV

Brief summary (registry, in English)

In this study, the investigators will assess the feasibility and acceptability of an evidence-based CBT group intervention, developed for older people with HIV, and research methods in a pilot randomized controlled trial including 50 older people with HIV as participants. The evidence-based CBT intervention has been developed and utilized in three clinical groups to date initiated and led by Dr. Batchelder (PI) in the Behavioral Medicine program at MGH. The 12-week intervention program proposed leverages evidence-based traditional and contemporary CBT strategies, with the goal of improving the psychological and physical functioning of older people with HIV by providing education and support to learn strategies to: a.) better manage stressors associated with HIV and aging (e.g., multi-morbidity), and b.) increase health-promoting behaviors (e.g., physical activity).
