Filter by:In the United States, around 19% of reproductive-aged couples suffer from infertility. The psychological distress associated with infertility is well-established; those diagnosed commonly experience depression and anxiety symptoms, diminished quality of life, and relationship dissatisfaction. In the current study, the investigators report on a case series, in which up to 10 infertility patients will receive 12 sessions of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). The overarching goal for the current case series is to determine whether ACT might be well-suited for infertility patients experiencing distress. The specific aims are: 1) to describe the components of the intervention that was delivered; 2) to determine the extent to which infertility patients perceive a 12-session ACT intervention beneficial and acceptable; 3) to describe change in mood, stress, and ACT processes across 12 sessions of ACT; and 4) to highlight potential processes through which ACT might promote benefits to the patient by describing how change in mood, stress, and ACT processes relate to each other over the course of 12 sessions of ACT.
