Body Dysmorphic Disorders Clinical Trial
Official title:
Development of a Cognitive Behavioral Mobile App for Body Dysmorphic Disorder, and Tests of Feasibility, Acceptability, and Preliminary Efficacy
The investigators are developing and testing a Smartphone-based cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) "app" for body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). The investigators hypothesize that app-based CBT for BDD will be feasible and acceptable to individuals with BDD, and will improve body image concerns and related outcomes.
The primary aims of this study are to develop and test the feasibility, acceptability, and
preliminary efficacy of a Smartphone-based CBT treatment for adults with BDD. This project
aims to solve two healthcare problems: poor access to empirically-supportive treatment for
BDD, and challenges of generalizing CBT skills outside therapy sessions. Inadequate treatment
access is due to limited professionals offering this specialized treatment, economic
barriers, and shame preventing sufferers from seeking in-person care. Mobile app-based CBT
would solve this access gap by addressing each of these barriers. Among those who obtain CBT,
practicing skills outside of therapy is critical for treatment effectiveness, as BDD symptoms
occur around-the-clock and can be most impairing at home. However, BDD patients struggle to
use skills without therapists' in-person support. App-based CBT that provides on-hand skills
coaching addresses this treatment generalization challenge.
This study involves developing the app-based CBT for BDD treatment, and then investigating
the initial feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the app-based treatment
in an open pilot trial (N = 10), consisting of 12-weeks of active treatment plus a 6-month
follow up period.
