Behavioral Symptom Management for Young Adult Cancer Survivors

The intervention includes group sessions held over Zoom along with an integrated mobile application to provide participants with instruction in cognitive and behavioral strategies for managing symptoms (i.e., pain, fatigue, distress). The developed intervention includes 8 face-to-face group sessions (12 therapy hours). Sessions are delivered using a faded contact approach (i.e., sessions 1-6: weekly, sessions 7-8: biweekly). Participants receive secure access to a study-specific mobile application that includes: 1) audio and video files and brief text-based educational content reviewing strategies discussed during the groups; 2) the ability to self-monitor symptom severity; 3) the ability to connect with group members via a social networking platform; and 4) activity tracking synchronization.
