Summary

SMART-PD is an 8-session program designed to decrease the physiological, emotional, cognitive and behavioral effects of stress in participants with Parkinson's disease and their caregivers by teaching cognitive-behavioral techniques and relaxation skills to help participants learn to elicit the relaxation response, alter cognitive appraisals, improve healthy lifestyle behaviors and access social support. The SMART program has been shown to be effective for reducing mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety as well as physical symptoms such as pain and in promoting positive health behaviors.
