Stroke is one of the main causes of acquired adult disability in the UK. Many psychological
problems can also occur post-stroke; this has a marked impact on health service usage. As
such, there is an outstanding need to increase and improve psychological resources within
stroke services.
The investigators proposed to adapt and evaluate the effectiveness of an acceptance and
commitment therapy (ACT) group intervention for adult stroke survivors and their carers. The
group will endeavour to promote positive adjustment and reduce levels of depression and
anxiety.
This study will have two parts.
