Summary

This study represents Phase II of a research program involving an international collaboration with Macquarie University (Sydney, Australia) to implement an Internet-based cognitive behavior therapy for the treatment of anxiety and depression in French-speaking Canadians from the Atlantic Provinces.

The primary objective is to establish the clinical efficacy of a French-Canadian self-guided format version of the Wellbeing Course by conducting a randomized-control trial where an experimental group will be compared to a waitlist control group. A secondary objective is to demonstrate the course's acceptability through participants' satisfaction with the course.

The Wellbeing Course

The Wellbeing Course (Titov et al., 2011) includes five online lessons: * Lesson 1 presents information on the prevalence of anxiety disorders and depression as well as on how they may interfere with life goals. This lesson also discusses how cognitive, behavioral and physical symptoms can contribute to poor emotional health. * Lesson 2 presents different strategies to generate realistic cognitions. * Lesson 3 describes strategies for physical de-arousal and for re-engaging in reinforcing activities. * Lesson 4 describes avoidance and safety behaviors in relation with anxiety and depression along with graded exposure. * Lesson 5 is about problem solving, relapse prevention and staying well. For each lesson, a "Do It Yourself" guide is included as well vignettes and additional material.
