Filter by:The hypotheses of the study are - There will be differences in perceived distress, dyadic coping strategies, social support, quality of life, and well-being in couples at Pre- and Post-Test Levels during the perinatal period in couples. - There will be differences in psychopharmacology on total scores of perceived distress, dyadic coping strategies, social support, quality of life, and well-being between the experimental and wait list-placebo control groups. - There will be differences in CBCT (condition: without Zikr) on total scores of perceived distress, dyadic coping strategies, social support, quality of life, and well-being between the experimental and wait list control group. - There will be differences in CBCT (condition: with Zikr) on total scores of perceived distress, dyadic coping strategies, social support, quality of life, and well-being between the experimental and wait list-placebo control groups. - There will be differences for combined psychopharmacology, and CBT (conditions: with Zikr, without Zikr ) dimensions on total scores of perceived distress, dyadic coping strategies, social support, quality of life, and well-being between experimental and wait list-placebo control group.
The goal of this pilot feasibility/acceptability study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a telehealth approach to increase access to services and reduce depression/anxiety symptoms and risk of substance use in a population of women with perinatal depression/anxiety and elevated substance use risk. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Assess the acceptability and feasibility of a telehealth approach to deliver an 8-week evidence-based group intervention to women with perinatal depression/anxiety and mild to moderate substance use risk. - Obtain preliminary data on treatment response to a telehealth 8-week evidence-based group intervention. Participants will participate in an 8-week evidence-based group intervention and complete the study questionnaire including depression severity, treatment adherence, and substance use risk which will be evaluated at baseline, post-intervention, and 2-month follow-up.
Pregnant and postpartum individuals often have difficulty sleeping and these sleep problems can negatively impact both the parent and infant. Research suggests that pregnant individuals prefer non-medication-based treatment for their sleep difficulties but there is a lack of research on the success of sleep treatment during pregnancy. Currently, there are two main non-medical treatments for sleep difficulties available. The first, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), is the first treatment recommended for insomnia and has been found to successfully treat insomnia during pregnancy and the postpartum period. In addition, shortened sessions of CBT for insomnia have also been found to successfully reduce sleep difficulties. The second option is sleep hygiene education which is the most commonly offered treatment for sleep difficulties and has been found to improve sleep problems. The present study will compare the effectiveness of a CBT for insomnia group workshop to a Sleep Hygiene group workshop.
Anxiety during pregnancy and the postpartum (perinatal) period is very common and is associated with adverse consequences for mothers and their infants. Currently, medication is the most commonly prescribed treatment for perinatal anxiety and the lack of nonmedication-based interventions for perinatal anxiety is a barrier to receiving effective treatment for many women. As such, the present single-blind, randomized controlled trial seeks to evaluate whether group-based cognitive behavioural therapy, the gold-standard psychological treatment for anxiety disorders in the general population, effectively treats perinatal anxiety symptoms when compared to a psychoeducation group, which is currently the most commonly prescribed non-medication-based treatment for perinatal distress.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate whether a novel mobile App-based behavioral intervention in pregnant women can: (1) prevent and/or decrease the incidence of perinatal mood disorders (2) decrease the severity and/or duration of perinatal mood disorders in affected participants (3) increase access of pregnant women to behavioral intervention and support tools (4) increase the satisfaction of pregnant women with their prenatal care.
