Original description
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and success of implementing internet-based cognitive behavioral psychotherapy (iCBT) guided by a therapist for symptoms of depression, insomnia and anxiety in individuals who did not respond to an automated intervention in primary care in the cities of Indaiatuba and Jaguariúna. Method: This is a pragmatic, prospective, randomized, two-arm, parallel-group, controlled clinical trial, comparing a therapist-guided Internet-based cognitive behavioral therapy (iCBT) treatment associated with usual care versus usual care alone (UC) for symptoms of depression, insomnia and anxiety in adults who attend primary care in the cities of Indaiatuba and Jaguariúna and who did not respond to a first phase of treatment with automated iCBT (not guided by a therapist) focused on these groups of symptoms. The results will be accessed during treatment, in the immediate post-treatment (after two weeks of completing treatment) and at 3 and 6 month follow-up.Read full original descriptionShow less
