NCT07659158

Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, minimal risk, non-randomized, single-arm study to determine feasibility and assess effectiveness of a Virtual Group Resilient Living Program (RLP) on anxiety, stress, quality of life (QOL), coping, and fatigue among patients with advanced cancer. The group RLP is a psychosocial intervention that consists of a total of 7 weekly sessions in which the interventionalist teaches the patients techniques on stress management and building resilience (mindfulness, uplifting emotions, reframe experiences through principles of gratitude, compassion, acceptance, meaning, and forgiveness). The group setting allows for support and connection amongst the patients, providing further support and motivation to practice the principles of the program.
