bCBT

The bCBT intervention uses 6 active-treatment sessions, each lasting 30 to 40 minutes, and telephone booster sessions to solidify changes. All participants receive an initial (core) session. In this session, participants work with their study clinician to set goals that are not restricted to "emotional health" (e.g., depression) but may also address "physical health" concerns (e.g., diet, exercise, managing a chronic condition). Following the core session, clinicians provide participants with a series of module choices, from which they select skills that match their most pressing needs. Each module focuses on a CBT technique (e.g., behavioral activation, changing thoughts), introduced and customized to the patient's immediate goals, regardless of the focus (physical or mental health).
